MTV Entertainment Group has funded and provided resources to support the Morehouse seniors through this project.
Chief Marketing Officer of MTV Entertainment Group, Jason White, told HBCUBuzz that collaborating with the students of Morehouse is the best way to honor the legacy and advocacy of Dr. King.
“MTV Entertainment Group is committed to using our platforms to lift up voices that need to be heard, so we felt there was no better way to honor Dr. King than to give this opportunity to the living embodiment of his legacy, the students at Morehouse College,” White said. “This is also an extremely talented group of up-and-coming filmmakers, and they’ve created a powerful piece that we’re proud to air across all our channels.”
Viewers can enjoy the film honoring Dr. King’s legacy through February on nine television channels: MTV, VH1, Country Music Television (CMT), Comedy Central, Paramount Network, Logo, TV Land, Pop TV, and Smithsonian.
