MLK, Jr. 1962 speech in HC Fieldhouse

I bumped into MLKjr outside my dorm room in Healey, but I don't recall attending his speech.  I did bus down to the Lincoln Memorial on the March for Freedom in the Summer of 1963. Stood on the steps of the Memorial and heard the "I have a dream" speech.  Huge gathering of mostly Blacks from all over.  Unforgettable spectacle.  I wore my sweatshirt with "Holy Cross" emblazoned across the front.  A few yrs later while teaching at Iona I was a flaming radical Leftie.  Vietnam radicalized a lot of people.  Anyone who lived through those days will never forget them.  Violence and body bags on the TV every evening.  I saw schoolkids sit down in the middle of Union Square in NYC before dozens of the NYPD Tactical Patrol Force swept down the square cracking the kids' skulls with their weighted batons.  I drove carloads of Iona students to Peace Marches in D.C.  Lots of troops with automatic weapons on the rooftops.  Dozens of buses surrounded the White House bumper to bumper as a security measure.  Lots of pot wafting in the breezes.  Yea, we all got an automatic high.  I devoted a whole class to the Mi Lai Massacre.  Iona was a pretty Conservative place.  I was THE young faculty radical.  I think the only reason they didn't fire me was because of the negative publicity it would have spawned.  I'm a classic example of  "If you're not Left when you're young you have no heart; if you're not Right when you're older you have no brains."
