Written, directed, and produced by Ken Burns and Sarah Burns, the film reveals the compelling and complicated character of this American legend and why his story still resonates today. Watch Fath Davis Ruffins, a curator at the National Museum of American History, lead an intriguing conversation with the filmmakers about the making of the documentary.
