This week, Professor Hasan Kwame Jeffries, associate professor of history at The Ohio State University, joins Abby in the classroom to help with her lesson plan on Martin Luther King Jr. They discuss how Martin Luther King Jr. became a symbol for peace and equality, his most impactful contributions to the civil rights movement, and what listeners can learn from his legacy today.
