Meenzer 15871 Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Just stumbled across this footage of Martin Luther King being conferred an honorary degree at Newcastle University in November 1967. I suspect the server can't cope with more than a couple of people viewing at one time, but it's fantastic stuff if you can get a decent stream. http://www.ncl.ac.uk/alumni/assets/documents/mlkfootage.htm (Apologies if mentioned previously on here.)

donaldstott 0 Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 He looks absolutely knackered, I imagine a trip from Memphis to Newcastle Upon Tyne was no cake walk in 1967. According to wiki, this is one of 50 honorary degrees he picked up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
