On this special tribute episode, Hard Knock Radio honors the life, legacy, and enduring impact of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. More than a historical figure, Dr. King was a radical thinker, moral visionary, and relentless advocate for justice whose work continues to challenge systems of racism, economic exploitation, militarism, and inequality.

This tribute reflects on Dr. King’s commitment to nonviolence, his leadership in the Civil Rights Movement, and his evolving critique of capitalism and war—ideas that remain deeply relevant in today’s struggles for racial justice, workers’ rights, and human dignity. Through reflection, historical context, and cultural memory, the show invites listeners to consider how Dr. King’s vision calls us not just to remembrance, but to action.

As we honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., we ask what it truly means to carry his legacy forward in a moment marked by political division, state violence, and ongoing fights for freedom and equality.

Hard Knock Radio is a drive-time Hip-Hop talk show on KPFA (94.1fm @ 4-5 pm Monday-Friday), a community radio station without corporate underwriting, hosted by Davey D and Anita Johnson.
