This forum discussion focuses on civil rights though the eyes of those on the front lines of the movement. This second session features Marian Wright Edelman, founder and chairman of the Children's Defense Fund and an organizer of Dr. King's Poor People's March; Peter Edelman, aide to Robert F. Kennedy; and Elaine Jones, former President of the NAACP's Legal Defense and Educational Fund. They examine the period between 1963–1968 and the continuing relationship between Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert F. Kennedy concerning civil rights and their growing opposition to the Vietnam War. This forum follows the forum "JFK, MLK and RFK, Part One: 1960–1968."
