Lorraine Motel

Today Americans celebrate the life and legacy of Martin Luther King, Jr. Above is a photo of the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, where Dr. King spent his final moments. We regret that Memphis was the location of this tragedy, some 38 years ago, but I hope this place will remain a testament to the dignity of one man and the power of one voice to change the course of history.
