A 60 minute documentary that shows shares the story of Robert Kennedy's campaign speech in Indianapolis immediately after Martin Luther King Jr's assassination on April 4, 1968. (c. 2009).
On April 4, 1968, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was shot and mortally wounded. American cities were engulfed in chaos and fear. Despite the violence raging across the country, Robert F.
