Post #5 - MONUMENTS

An overview of  Several Monuments


The Martin Luther King Memorial
"The Stone Of Hope"
This extraordinary monument was built to exemplify the many fundamental values of Martin Luther King Jr. as he was one of the first and most admirable civil rights activists. Built in 2011 and simply inspired by the efforts in which he stood for, this memorial was dedicated to him. What really impacted me were the quotations in which they added on the walls, he was truly a man who made a difference. Also, the quote carved in stone was quite moving;
"Out Of The Mountains Of Despair, A Stone Of Hope"    


The Lincoln Memorial
