In July 1962 Dr. martin Luther King, Jr. became the first African American to speak at the Club. An audio recording was made of the speech and filed away in the Club’s Archives and later transferred to the Library of Congress. No television footage of the speech in its entirety exists.
The Club’s History and Heritage Committee recently retrieved the recording and found it is of significant historical value. Coming just days after Dr. King was released from jail in Albany, Ga., the civil rights leader outlined his vision for non-violent protest as the best way to achieve racial equality.
On Jan. 12, portions of the speech will be played and experts on the civil rights movement will add context and perspective to what Dr. King said. Press Club President John Hughes will unveil a permanent Club memorial to Dr. King’s speech.

Black America was crying out for change, and through the ‘50s and ‘60s, Martin Luther King was the man charged with bringing it, as the leader of the Civil Rights Movement. But not everybody wanted change – and some would bitterly oppose it.
This documentary tells the true story of how the eminent activist was subjected to a campaign of intimidation by J. Edgar Hoover’s FBI. Convinced that King was a stooge of the Communists, the controversial FBI Director was determined to stop him at any cost.
Colleagues and academics explore the depth of Hoover’s relentless vendetta, examining why he targeted King, and the legacy of his decision to do so.
