Dr MLK Jnr

Kunter Kinte holds child aloft outside the King Memorial Centre

Ebenezer Baptist church on Auburn Ave

Over the road - the new Ebenezer Baptist church

and where his mother was shot

Where Dr King was pastor (as was his father)

The Street where Martin Luther King was born, grew up, and preached in Atlanta

The house bordered by similar ones - not a poor street

The birth house in Auburn Ave, protected site these days

Not a small house, similar to the Victorian style ones in Dunedin and Wellington

A backyard large enough to play baseball

.. and smaller workers cottages

Across the street - even bigger homes

Inside - classic firetruck preserved

Down on the corner - the No 6 fire station - first to have black firefighters working with white

Ghandi (Martin's hero for demonstrating the power of peaceful resistance) presides over the other entrance

Wife Coretta's tomb in the foreground

The King's car left as they were parked, at the Lorraine Motel

Lorraine Motel, Memphis, assassination site
