BMA: Black Media Archive show

Summary: This episode is parts of two sermons, inluding "Burn Baby Burn" from the album "Keep the Faith, Baby!: Adam Clayton Powell's Message to the World." The LP was recorded in Bimini in January 1967 during Powell's self-imposed exile after the U.S. House of Representatives voted not to let him take the seat to which he had just been reelected to by the voters of Harlem.
