50th Anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s Assassination

Recommended Posts

Today marks the 50th anniversary of the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., the leader, most visible spokesperson, and driving force of the U.S. Civil Rights Movement in the 1950s and 1960s.  He was fatally shot at 6:01 p.m. (US Central Time) on April 4, 1968, while walking with associates on the breezeway (balcony) of the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, Tennessee, USA.  

  • Photo #1 below shows Dr. King with Rev. Jesse Jackson (left) and Rev. Ralph Abernathy (right), two other major leaders in the Civil Rights Movement, shortly before King’s murder.  
  • #2 shows the scene on the motel balcony moments after Dr. King was shot.  His body is visible on the floor, and his associates are pointing in the direction the shots had come from.  
  • Today, the Lorraine Motel is the site of the National Civil Rights Museum.  The floral wreath in photo #3 marks the spot where Dr. King was struck by the fatal bullet.  
  • #4 shows part of the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial in Washington, DC.  In the foreground is the “Stone of Hope,” bearing a statue of Dr. King, and the two stones in the background are the “Mountain of Despair."
  • (James Earl Ray, an escaped convict, was arrested for the murder two months later at London Heathrow Airport (UK).  He initially confessed to the murder but recanted his confession a few days later.  However, he pleaded guilty at his trial to avoid the possibility of receiving the death penalty if he were convicted of the murder.  He was sentenced to 99 years in prison and spent the rest of his life attempting without success to withdraw his guilty plea and receive the trial he never had.  Numerous conspiracy theories arose in subsequent years about whether Ray was really the assassin, and if he had been, who his co-conspirators were, including the possibility that agencies of the US government had been involved.)
