I’m not sure where Lexington Dispatch reporter David Bodenhiemer got his information for this article on the MLK Memorial Peace Conference:

The assembly stresses the need for open dialogue and the importance of peace, to give voice to those opposed to war and to discuss nonviolent ways to confront violence. Greensboro native Clarence Henderson was the event’s featured speaker.

Henderson, an Army veteran, is best known as one of The Greensboro Four for his participation in the 1960 sit-in protest at the Woolworth’s lunch counter in downtown Greensboro.

Here are the Greensboro Four.
