The following video was sent to us by writer/speaker/filmmaker Molly Secours.

During one week in early 2009, the youth from the Nashville’s Oasis Center filmed this short documentary to celebrate Dr. Martin Luther King’s legacy and its direct result, the election of Barack Obama as our first African-American president.

Molly writes: “It was touching to see youth reach out to those local heroes who marched with MLK and sat at his feet during the Nashville lunch counter sit-ins and Freedom Rides. Some of these faces are but a few of the lesser known thousands who helped changed the course of history.”

Music by Nashville songwriter Don Henry.
