BBC Newcastle - Martin Luther King in Newcastle 2 of 8

Martin Luther King's 'I Have a Dream' speech is known, and quoted, around the world, but few people know about the speech he gave in Newcastle upon Tyne in 1967 - after being given an honorary doctorate by the University. BBC Newcastle broadcast long-lost footage from that speech shortly after it was discovered - and we thought it deserved a wider audience. Hear what happened when our reporter Murphy Cobbing took the King's Speech to the US and played it to an influential journalist and a top US broadcaster in Washington D.C.
