This is a Documentary I produced with CAS (Cole, Anna, Sacha) for Warren Tech, about Martin Luther King’s influence on America. It was created for a high school National History Day competition, winning 1st at regionals for best high school group documentary. Also took 1st at the DAFFY high school film awards, for best documentary. Working on this project, I learned so much more than I ever knew about King from school text books. I contacted 3 great community leaders in Denver for interviews.Vern L. Howard, Chairman of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Holiday Commision. Project Manager for the Martin Luther King Monument.Rev. James D. Peters Jr. Pastor of New Hope Baptist Church. Walked with King during the Civil Rights Movement.Silke Hansen, Retired from Community Relations Services, Justice Department. Was very involved with the Civil Rights Movement.
