Days before Martin Luther King Jr. was shot and killed at the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, the Prairie View A&M choir sang for the civil rights leader in an impromptu performance at the motel. It was a welcome reprieve for King — even if it was just a small one — and a moment the singers never forgot.
50 years later, they've taken the lessons King taught and the experience of meeting him to heart, imparting them on a new generation.
