The King Falls yet the Movement moves on.

Martin Luther King Jr. was a reverend residing Ebenezer Baptist Church, taking upon his family's line of pastors.  After receiving his B.A. degree from Morehouse College, a segregated university in Atlanta, Georgia.  Later, he moved to Montgomery, Alabama, becoming a Pastor at the Dexter Avenue Baptist Church.  He always had strong opinions regarding equality of civil rights between races.  His most famous speech was the well-known, "I have a Dream", given on August 28th, 1963 around the Lincoln Memorial in Washington DC.  His "Letter from a Birmingham Jail" illustrated the reasons why Negros shouldn't be denied the right to vote.  At age 35, King received his Nobel Piece Prize, making him the youngest man to ever receive the award.  In the Mason Temple in Memphis Tennessee, King gave his "I've been to the Mountain Top" speech, saying he had seen the Promise Land and he ensured that the people would reach it, however not necessarily with him leading the way.  This speech about predicted the event that could occur the following day.  On the following day, April 4th, 1963, King was shot and killed at the Lorraine Motel in Memphis Tennessee.  Although the leader of the movement was no more, the movement would continue on, as it still does today.
