By John Seigenthaler and Kerry Kennedy. Seigenthaler, journalist and founder of the First Amendment Center, moderates the discussion, which features a video appearance by Kerry Kennedy, human rights activist and author of Speak Truth to Power. Kennedy was scheduled to appear in person but could not because of inclement weather.

The discussion was held Jan. 28, 2010 and was part of the 2010 Martin Luther King Commemorative Lecture Series.
