TV One Releases 'Behind the Movement' Clip for MLK Day
"It's a day we stood side-by-side..."
Rosa Parks' refusal to give up her bus seat 62 years ago was only the beginning. Premiering on TV One on Sunday, February 11, Behind the Movement offers a closer look at how the history-making Montgomery Bus Boycott was planned in just three days and ultimately led to the Civil Rights Movement of the 1950s and 1960s. This new clip from TV One's Behind the Movement provides a glimpse into Martin LUTHER King Jr.'s role at a turning-point of the Civil Rights Movement.
Starring Meta Golding ("The Hunger Games") as Rosa Parks, Isaiah Washington ("The 100") as E.D. Nixon, Loretta Devine ("Waiting to Exhale") as Jo Ann Robinson, Roger Guenveur Smith ("American Gangster") as Raymond Parks ,and Shaun Clay as Dr. Martin LUTHER King, Jr., Behind the Movement reveals the untold story of how a group of everyday people decided this incident was the right time to take a stand for their civil rights and demand equal treatment.
