The NY Times has a story with related audio on a conversation between LBJ, the President at the time, and Martin Luther King, Jr., the famed civil rights leader. The conversation was taped as a part of an oval office recording system that Johnson had established. MLK, preumably, was unaware he being taped. The conversation centers on the voting rights amendment to the U.S. constitution that was eventually passed.
