What's On Tonight (Thursday): The Cause Endures And The Dream Shall Never Die

Via Imgur

TOP PICK
⭐ The March On Washington: Keepers Of The Dream (National Geographic, 10:00 PM/Available Tomorrow On Hulu) From National Geographic and The Undefeated, explores 'the intersection of sports, race, and culture. It will trace the raw and uncensored journey of the Civil Rights Movement through the eyes of the heroes who marched for justice and equality in the 1960s, and the experiences of those on the front lines of the current fight for racial equality... The special concludes with images from the 2020 March on Washington and will bring full circle the themes which center on an underlying systemically volatile relationship between Black people and the police, and how it continues to be a deferred dream of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'
