The Martin Sheen Podcast

This episode captures a truly bold and historic moment in Martin’s life. After hearing of the horrific events in 1965 from Selma, Alabama known as “Bloody Sunday” he was motivated to bring the New York theater community together to raise funds and awareness for the people who suffered from this violence. In his personal story he recounts how a vast, diverse group of artists banded together for one unforgettable night of solidarity and a surprise guest visit by none other than Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. himself.

What better words than those of Shakespeare to help memorialize and celebrate those we have loved and lost. And what better ways to honor those who are gone than to share reminiscences and stories that live in our hearts. Martin does just that and more in this deeply moving episode that honors grief with empathy and reverence and humanity.
