2008 News Releases

A Ripple of Hope Sponsored by Locke Reynolds LLP

INDIANAPOLIS, March 2008 Locke Reynolds is pleased to announce their role in presenting A Ripple of Hope, an independent documentary produced by Covenant Productions at Anderson University.

On April 4, 1968, the tragic day when Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was assassinated, Robert F. Kennedy offered a glimmer of hope to a disillusioned inner-city crowd through an inspiring speech he gave in Indianapolis. A Ripple of Hope captures the historical significance of Kennedy's words that fateful day. Produced and directed by award-winning filmmaker Donald Boggs and featuring original music by Grammy Award winner John Colby, A Ripple of Hope uses digitally restored footage to retell this gripping and historic story. Featuring interviews with the late Congresswoman Julia Carson, veteran Indianapolis news anchor Tom Cochrun and others, A Ripple of Hope poignantly relives Kennedy's role in leading Indianapolis through one of this nation's darkest events.

Please join us for one of the free premiere screenings of this documentary on Friday, April 4 at the Madame Walker Theatre (617 Indiana Avenue). These screenings are presented by Heartland Truly Moving Pictures and Indiana Black Expo, Inc., and sponsored by Locke Reynolds LLP, the Pacers Foundation, Inc. and Fifth Third Bank.

The first screening will be at 1:00 p.m. and will be geared towards community youth. The screening will be followed by a panel discussion on how we can respect, accept and appreciate the world's rich diversity and different forms of expression.

The evening screening will take place at 7:30 p.m. This screening will also be followed by a panel discussion moderated by WTLC radio personality Amos Brown. Locke Reynolds attorney, Lloyd Milliken, will participate on the panel as he was present on the day of Kennedy's speech.
