On the Wall of United nations Ambas Sador Andrew Young s office hanging like station of the Cross is a framed poster of or. Martin Luther King or. Underneath in Large letters Are parts of the speech he delivered in Memphis on the night before he was killed in 1968, one of the years that lives in the soul. I Don t know what will happen have got difficult Days ahead but it does t matter with me because i be been tothe Mountaintop. Like anybody else i d like to live a Long life. But i m not concerned wit that t just want to do god s will and he has allowed me to go up to the Mountain. I seethe promised land and i May not get there with you but i want you to know tonight that we As a people will get the promised land. I Arn Happy tonight that i am not worried about anything i m not fearing any Man. My eyes have seen the coming of the arid Young sat on a Couch under the poster. Whenever Martin was depressed and a Little afraid about getting killed he gave that speech Young was was in a Blue suit and striped tie. When i saw him in Memphis the morning after King was killed he was wearing Levis and he was Young but he was read the words on the poster again and now you could smell the smoke and Hearthe sounds of strained voices and breaking glasses and on the Walkway outside room306 of the Lorraine Motel in Memphis the first Light of Dawn came through the moist darkness to reveal at your feet the dried blackened blood of Martin Luther King who was shot As he stood at this spot on the night can Tell you this Andy Young was saying the Fri Man in charge of the at Lanta office said to another agent at the end of the Day Well we finally got the sob and the other agent said who s that and the head agent said Zorro that was their code for Martin. They called him Zorro. What do i think what am i supposed to think Young spent Friday night in his apart ment at the Waldorf Astoria watching Bill movers extraordinary documentary on thecia and Cuba. In the midst of the show came the report that convict James Earl Ray had escaped from the Brushy Mountain state prison in Tennessee. And now. Yesterday morning Young had in his hands a speech about the world that he was to give at Michi Gan state University but All there really was to talk about was James Earl Ray. You have to wonder How he got away Torso Long after Martin was killed Andy was saying. Ray in t smart. He s a dope. The Only reason he Ever got caught was because whoever they were they d Given him two passports. Ray was at the Airport in London and he gets asked for his passport and he gives them one and then he says of no i gave you the wrong one and he takes the passport Back and raves the other passport to the Man. Bingo that s How he got s How smart he is. Do you know How to do it do you know where to go to get a forged passport 1 Don t. How is some dumb Guy out of jail going to know unless he has plenty of help now that he s out do you think they a kill him to get rid of him i asked. You Don t know what to think Youn said. But Given the experience of the past you can t help but being cynical. I figure there Are forces out there working against us that we. Don t have any understanding be Felt that Way for a Long time but you just go ahead and do what you have to do you think they Are i asked Don t know he said. I Don t know what la come out of this now. You begin to feel tired. People still Are investigating the assassinations of Abraham Lincoln and Huey Long. I Don t know if Well Ever find out about Ray. I have no ideas. I just know that people arc out there. The thing i always have to focus on you have to continue inspire of everything. That s hard enough to voice was dead. For a couple of years now Andy Young has been telling us that the South is different now that in order to remain sane people like Jimmy Carter had to struggle with race All their lives and now that they have won they should Lead a coun try. And then one news bulletin on Friday night brought everything Back to the Southas it was the South of the late 60s and the 60s. James Earl Ray was free and you suspected that the ones chasing him Are the ones who let him go and now you thought of them All in the South. Bull Connor in Birmingham and Jim Lark in Selma and a kid named Collie Leroy Wilkins aiming his pistol out the car wind Wand one of them with him saying. Get yours Little baby brother and Wilkins firing at a woman in a car alongside a woman named Viola Liuzzo who died on the Highway to Montgomery. And James Earl Ray shooting from a flophouse window and killing Martin Luther King with one shot an the police screaming Over their radios about a White car while Ray slipped out of town and went to Canada and then Mexico and then Europe. Why did he do it How did he travel around so much who paid him the questions came up again As they staged an other manhunt for James Earl Ray who does not leave our course today you must think again about the others.
