Late Night Video — RIP Lou Reed
Lots of Lou Reed and Velvet Underground memories being written today as Mr. Reed died today of currently unknown causes.

Late Night Video — Dr. King Justifies The Poor People’s Campaign
The Poor People’s Campaign was the effort that Dr. King was involved with organizing when he was assassinated. This campaign was designed to focus on the needs of the nation’s poor people — of all races and nationalities. In 1968, King was traveling the country raising awareness of this campaign for economic justice, which was supposed to occur in the spring. Dr. King was assassinated in April, and even though the People’s Campaign seemed to be derailed, it started on Mother’s Day — with thousands of people converging on Washington, DC. Resurrection City — the tent city — was created on the mall and the protest continued for almost six weeks. The occupation ended in violence and the campaign for economic justice failed. Today’s question is what might have been different if Dr. King lived to see this through?
