A Conversation with Dr. Peniel E. Joseph - a podcast by LBJ Foundation

Dr. Peniel E. Joseph is a Professor of Public Affairs and the founding director for the Center for the Study of Race and Democracy at the LBJ School of Public Affairs at The University of Texas at Austin. His critically acclaimed new book, "The Sword and the Shield: The Revolutionary Lives of Malcolm X and Martin Luther King Jr.," argues for a new interpretation of these two historic civil rights leaders.

In this episode, Joseph looks at the lives of Malcolm X and Martin Luther King Jr., their markedly different backgrounds and influences, and their divergent but ultimately complementary roles in forging a civil rights "historic period."
