Part 8/11:
The conversation reflects frustration with the tendency of government officials to classify or withhold certain documents even many years after the events. The speaker mentions President Trump’s 2017 order to review MLK files which, despite promises to declassify everything, resulted in some materials remaining sealed.
There is skepticism about the reasons for continued withholding, especially given the age of these documents. The overarching concern is transparency and the integrity of historical record-keeping, as past classifications seem increasingly unjustified.
