Andrew Young Presents "Crossing St. Augustine" Airing Across the Nation during Dr. King's Holiday

Andrew Young Presents: A quarterly series of television specials syndicated across the U.S. and focusing on positive stories overlooked by the mainstream media.

The team of Andrew Young Presents has completed taping and editing of Part I & II of the Documentary Film, "Crossing St. Augustine". Part One of the documentary begins with the story of Rev. Young, former U.S. Ambassador to the UN and Mayor of Atlanta, GA. who in 1964, was sent to St. Augustine by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and ends with him being brutally beaten while police stood by and watched. 

Part II picks back up with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s decision to wage a modern-day Battle of Jericho in St. Augustine.

The film will surprise, educate, and inspire viewers. According to Andrew Young Presents, the St. Augustine Civil Rights Movement is, "...arguably one of the most important chapters of the struggle for equality in America". Many hometown Heroes will be featured in this film. Part I will be airing around Dr. King's Holiday Celebrations, and Part II sometime in February during Black History Month. A MUST SEE!  Please click HERE for information and updates on where you can view this film.
