On March 3 1989, Madonna’s Like A Prayer video premiered on MTV.
The music video, directed by Mary Lambert, portrayed Madonna as a witness to a murder of a white girl by white supremacists. While a black man is arrested for the murder, Madonna hides in a church for safety seeking strength to go forth as a witness.
