Assassinations: Sam Cooke Pt. 2

Every weekday, we recommend a podcast related to a movie or TV show you can watch at home: When Sam Cooke’s life was tragically cut short at the age of 33, two funeral services were held in separate states to accommodate the hundreds of thousands of people who wanted to pay their respects. His music would serve as a guiding light through the second half of the 1960s as America negotiated a new relationship with race, identity, and culture.
