dc:description
  • Grafman was born in 1907. He took part in the struggle for racial equality in the early 1960s. He joined ten members of the clergy in denouncing George Wallace's "Segregation now, segregation forever" speech. He and seven other clergymen tried to delay Martin Luther Kind Jr. in his protest in Birmingham, thus getting MLK Jr's response back in the form of "Letter from Birmingham Jail".
