Weeks before the 1960 presidential election, Martin Luther King Jr.
was arrested for participating in a lunch counter sit-in in Atlanta
and sentenced to four months of hard labor. Thanks to some
back-channel moves by the Kennedy campaign, King was released from
prison. On Georgia Today, author Paul Kendrick explains how that
changed party allegiances for Black and white voters in the South
for generations.
