Today we visited the Civil Rights Museum in Memphis, Tennessee. The assassination site of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. It was very sobering to stand there with the realization that he lost his life solely based on the color of his skin and that so much racism still exists in our society.  The Lorraine Motel is now a museum and stands as a monument to everything he stood for.  Another man who gave his life to change the world.IMG_0075
