Be sure to watch "FULL JUSTICE" on Youtube. It's a brand new ORIGINAL SONG/VIDEO depicting the life and struggles of MLK and the civil rights movement in the 60's.

and speaking of racist speech...
Yes, Dr. King was a black man, but more importantly, he was a great man, a great American, who fought for HUMAN RIGHTS, not just civil rights. He led a NATION not just black men and women...

Perhaps, before you are so quick to ask why they are called "Mountains of Despair", you should do a little research. Have you ever heard the speech "March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom" Dr. King gave in August of 1963 (which just happens to be more commonly known as his "I Have a Dream" speech??? Perhaps you should read it and then you might understand exactly why his slab appears to be displaced from the mountain...

Leave it to someone from China to totally miss what Dr. King was all about. I'm talking of course about the sculptor. Arms folded with a scowl on his face? Really? Very disappointing.
i am so glad this has finally come to fruition can't wait to see it with my own eyes ! MLK Jr. should have had this long ago for all he did for civil rights and all americans and people everywhere. God bless you Dr. King and thank you to those who fought so hard for this dream to be realized in a memorial deserving of Dr. King.

I visted last Sunday. The location is beautiful. The sculpture is lovely. Dr. King is not scowling. True, he was a humble man. But he also preached with authority and I think this sculpture shows this. I hope they will remove the misquote that is on his statue and replace it with his actual words. There is plenty of room to do that. And I wish they would have written his title, Rev. Dr. in front of his name. Dr. King was motivated by the teachings of Jesus, that he saw enacted by Ghandi,
