Ernest C. Withers' images of funerals for both Martin Luther King and Medgar Evers were printed in national magazines like LIFE and TIME and helped focus national attention on the African American struggle for equal rights. Withers' photographs detail the wins and losses of Negro League baseball teams, the everyday routines of his friends and neighbors, and the realities of life in the deep South. EGG travels to Memphis to meet this living legend and hears first-hand about these photographs that helped shape our understanding of history.
