KPIX Eyewitness News report from February 27th 1967 in San Francisco featuring scenes from a sermon by Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. on modern society scientific advancement and racial segregation in America. King points out that: "Modern man suffers from a kind of poverty of the spirit which stands in glaring contrast to his scientific and technological abundance.
