Monday honors the birthday of civil rights leader Martin Luther King, Jr., and the federal holiday created in celebration of his legacy. 
As COVID-19 cases surge in Louisville and around Kentucky, many local events have been moved online, including the showing of a new documentary from Louisville filmmaker and percussionist Joan Brannon. 
Her film, “Fire and Heart: A Blueprint for Liberation,” will stream Monday on the YouTube channel of Lexington’s MLK Holiday Planning Committee. 
Brannon filmed the racial justice protests in Louisville and Lexington during the late summer and early fall, and spoke with some of the movement’s leaders for the film, such as Louisville poet, author and performer Hannah Drake; Keturah J. Herron from ACLU Kentucky; Louisville Urban League president and CEO Sadiqa Reynolds; Louisville Metro Council member, artist and educator Jecorey Arthur; and Lexington activist Sarah Williams. ....
