My Trip to the Martin Luther King Jr National Historic Site

Today I had the honor of visiting the place where Dr. Martin Luther King Jr worked, preached, and was laid to rest... As well as a Beautiful museum dedicated to him and his legacy.  I was moved to tears many times throughout the day especially in the room dedicated to his funeral persecion and death.  The energy and emotions that flowed through me here were almost too much to handle.. The site is located in south Atlanta, Georgia... keep up the struggle, keep up the fight for economic justice that Dr. King was fighting for when he was murdered by the U.S. government!

"Change does not roll in on the wheels of inevitability, but comes through continuous struggle. And so we must straighten our backs and work for our freedom. A man can't ride you unless your back is bent."    MLK Jr 








The carrage that carried his coffin at his funeral...
