1. Re
"Early morning, April 4
Shot rings out in the Memphis sky.
Free at last, they took your life,
But they could not take your pride...

In the name of love
What more in the name of love?"

U2

3. He inspired many.
Thanks for the reminder of that song, and welcome to DU! You'll find a lot of great value, and a lot of noise, but overall the forum is a great resource.

2. Audio links
Mike seems to be including a lot of audio.

Robert Kennedy appeared at a campaign rally just after learning the news. Here are his words to the crowd:
