The Native perspective on Martin Luther King, Jr.
Although his focus was primarily on improving conditions for African Americans, Dr. Martin Luther King often included Native people in his push to end racial oppression and segregationist policies.

His monumental efforts to change the course of history built a foundation that Native Americans continue to build on.

As the nation marks the federal holiday, Native America Calling will reflect on the progress and setbacks since his historic civil rights fight.
