(Original Caption) The Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. today [Sept. 20] led nearly 200 Negro children to schools where integration last week set off a mob frenzy by whites. Dr. King told a gathering of Negro pupils and parents at the Bellflower Baptist Church before leading them on the demonstration that he could not agree with the black power slogan of ‘‘Burn baby, burn’’ that came out of the 1965 riots in Watts. ‘‘I am forced to disagree with that slogan,’’ Dr. King said. ‘‘I say, ‘Learn, baby, learn’ and ‘Build, baby, build.’’’

“Reggae music is always there now but the thing that makes our music so important is the lyrics I think. Yes, it is necessary to understand the lyrics. You know. It has meaning to it. But because some people…understand the words, some people never go through them situation. But dreds of the world suffer. Masses of the people suffer. And this music comes from the masses of the people.”- Bob Marley
