[edit] Precious Lord

There is room for debate whether "Precious Lord" was Dr. King's favorite gospel song; one account claims that he asked for it to be sung the night before his assassination because it was the only song that choir could perform half-competently. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.126.41.116 (talk) 10:34, 6 January 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Film

Professor Dorsey (along with Willie May Ford Smith) was profiled in the film Say Amen, Somebody. Perhaps some mention should be made of the film, as it is a wonderful introduction to his life and work, as well as the depth of his influence. —Preceding unsigned comment added by K8 fan (talk • contribs) 04:27, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
