Two memorial publications from the Tallahassee Democrat newspaper and the National Black Monitor magazine. The Tallahassee Democrat publication is a special program published as a public service memorializing Rev. C.K. Steele, a minister and civil rights leader in Tallahassee, prior to the memorial service that took place on August 22, 1980 in Bethel Baptist Church. Stories from this program were also published in the August 20, 1980 issue of the Democrat and edited by Assistant City Editor Ron Hartung. The National Black Monitor publication, titled "An Inspiration for Reaching Back," was made as a tribute to Martin Luther King, Jr. in January, 1984. It includes historical highlights from King's life, his philosophy of nonviolence, and the history of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Center for Nonviolent Social Change, Inc. from its early years through the completion of the Freedom Hall Complex.
