Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. at 澳门六合彩预测

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. spoke to a standing-room-only audience in 澳门六合彩预测's McFarlin Auditorium on March 17, 1966.

The letter of invitation was sent to Dr. King by then-澳门六合彩预测 Student Senate Vice President Bert Moore on behalf of the Student Senate. Moore, a theology student, had traveled to Montgomery, Ala., to participate in a civil rights march with Dr. King. He was introduced to the crowd by Students' Association Academic Committee Chair Charles Cox.
