It’s only 22 seconds long and it’s silent, but this newly discovered film of Martin Luther King visiting Reynolds Coliseum in July of 1966 speaks volumes. WRAL reporter and anchor Ken Smith interviews people who vividly remember that day and speaks to an NCSU English professor who has spent years researching the visit. This is part of our special Black History Month coverage.
