Martin Luther King Jr. Was So Full Of Grace And Faith And Such A Dearly Wonderful Pastor, I Get A Small Tear To My Eye When I Hear His Speeches Thinking To Myself That He Cared So Much About Many People He Had A Heart Of Gold And We Will Never Forget Him. ❤
Such a horrible year😭😭
It should also be noted that in 1967 King said he felt he had “integrated his people into a burning house”. King started to speak against American imperialism worldwide.
Press F to pay respect😢
Rest in peace The man of God and the man of human rights 🙏
Martin Luther King Jr is such a good man and he's one of my favorite people in the whole history. Dr. King was only 39 years old when he was shot and killed at the hotel. He had a good heart for many people, even those who don't like him. I hope Dr. Martin Luther King Jr would rest in peace forever and live on in Heaven.
Awesome 😢 😢 thanks
