Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was slain by a gunshot as he stood outside a Memphis hotel on April 4, 1968, at 6:01 p.m. Central time. He was in the midst of fighting for the Civil Rights of our people and he stood on a platform of no violence. The disgusting irony in his death is enough to cause pain deep enough to span generations.
