Stop 6 of 9 on Monuments to the Dead
The Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial
National Mall, Washington DC
A Preview
"The address of this memorial is nineteen sixty-four Independence Avenue. They chose that number for the Civil Rights Act of nineteen sixty-four. Look at the layout. Two massive boulders form the entrance — the Mountain of Despair. They were once a single stone, split apart. You walk through the gap between them — through the struggle — and on the other side stands the Stone of Hope."
