"The memorial was beautiful, clear, and
serene, much like Dr. King's Dream. What I like best of
the area however, was the garden planted outside the King
center, it was an array of roses of many different colors,
which represented the many different races living together.
Through the middle of the garden, was a continuos stream
of red roses, which symbolized the blood and suffering which
had been unremitting in the Civil Rights Movement. It was
beautiful, simple, and complex, all at the same time, like
the movement itself." -Student |
"I was so humbled, just sitting by the
pool, looking up at the tomb, remembering John's Gospel
'There is no greater love than to lay down one's life for
his friends.' The scenes of his casket, pulled by a sharecroppers'
wagon, ran through my mind." - Kristina Riordan |
