Joan Baez Interview: Singing for & Marching with Martin Luther King Jr.

Joan Baez speaks about her friendship with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., on first hearing him speak at her school when she was 16, him visiting her in jail and how she was in complete denial when he was assassinated. Baez credits Dr. King on helping her move from being a student of non violence to a practitioner. Joan Baez is a singer, songwriter and activist born in Staten Island, New York. Of Mexican and Scottish descent, she experienced racism and discrimination as a child that may have inspired her life-long commitment to social justice, civil rights, and non-violence. In the 1960s, she released her first hit album, featuring topical songs related to human and civil rights. She famously performed the civil rights anthem, “We Shall Overcome” at the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom in 1963, where Dr. King delivered his “I Have a Dream” speech. Throughout her career she demonstrated a commitment to social and political causes, such as Amnesty International and Live Aid. Baez has released more than 30 albums, and received a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2007 and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2017. From the HBO / Kunhardt Film Foundation (KFF) Documentary “King in the Wilderness” that follows Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. during the last years of his life: from the passage of the Voting Rights Act in 1965 to his assassination in 1968, through personal stories of the people who were around him.
