Reading now: 824
According to a report from The Hollywood Reporter, the film is set to be developed by Michelle and Barack Obama’s production company Higher Ground and released by Netflix.
During the civil rights movement, Rustin was an advisor to Martin Luther King Jr. and an influential figure within the community.
One of his many accomplishments include organizing the March on Washington in 1963 – which featured MLK’s historic “I Have A Dream” speech.
Even though his involvement was extremely important to the movement he was forced to take a less public role due to him being gay.
