he talked about - he didn't say "bill" I think but the idea that that the bill was long over due for African Americans.

He spoke out against the Vietnam Wat in '67 at ? the Riverside Church in NYC.

He championed the Poor People's March.

He was so loved and SO hated back then! (still loved and hated today)

I was a teen then, and paying attention.
