WestView News May 9, 2018 0 24 sec read
MLK REMEMBERED: On a cold April 3, 2018 night, the rain stopped in time for Martin Luther King’s image to be projected on both sides of the Washington Square arch. Mayor de Blasio said introductory remarks to honor King’s, “I’ve Been to the Mountaintop,” speech which was replayed in the park that evening in honor of its 50th anniversary. De Blasio said, “King’s speech focuses on themes of economic justice and ends with a famous meditation on his own mortality.” Photo credit: © Joel Gordon 2018—All rights reserved.
