20 YEARS OF IDEAS | What Today's Changemakers Can Learn From MLK | To reflect on the legacy of Martin Luther King, Jr., we’re taking a look back at a conversation with someone who knew the civil rights leader deeply. Clarence B. Jones was the person who smuggled out the scraps of paper that Dr. King used to write his “Letter from a Birmingham Jail.” He was a close personal friend, legal advisor, and speech writer, helping draft the iconic “I Have a Dream” speech of 1963. Interviewed by journalist Michele Norris at the 2017 Aspen Ideas Festival, Jones offered a rare, intimate perspective on MLK’s leadership, morality, and personal life. 🎥 Watch | | EVENT | Join Us in June | Great news!
