In the second of six podcasts, WKYC producer Chris Cantergiani and author Jim Robenalt try to understand Fred "Ahmed" Evans and how he became the leader of black nationalists who ambushed police on July 23, 1968, with long rifles and armor-piercing bullets. This segment also looks at Dr. King's mission in Cleveland in 1967, where he came to help elect Carl Stokes the first African American mayor of a major U. S. city. In that mission, Dr. King will interact with Ahmed Evans.
