Memphis, TN – Husband and wife, Taylor and Bessie Rogers remember Martin Luther King, Jr.'s speech the night before the peaceful sanitation workers' march at Mason Temple in Memphis, which was also the night before King was assassinated. That night they swore that they could tell that Martin Luther King, Jr. knew that something was going to happen to him.
