The story-- April 3 rd 1968, a stormy night in Memphis, Tennessee. Dr. King retires to his motel
room. Amongst the dim lighting and sterile furnishings, he struggles to write what would be his
last uncompleted work, “Why America Is Going to Hell”, when he encounters his worst
nightmare. There he confronts himself with a great decision during what would soon come to
be known, as the last night of his life.
