CITIZENSHIP: Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in Montgomery, Ala on April 29, 1966 encouraging voting amongst Negroes

"... Freedom is a varied thing in the United States... The right to vote, and the ability and right to read at 16 years of age meant more to me than obtaining a drivers license or owning a car. As soon as I was of age I proudly placed my voting card and library card in my wallet. I felt that emotion deep in my soul...."  ©Gregory E. Woods
