45 years ago today Dr. King was in Memphis to support striking sanitation workers. He gave this "I've Been To The Mountaintop' speech which sadly turned out to be the last of his brilliant but oh so brief life.
The next day April 4, an assassin's bullet took his life as he stood on the balcony of the Lorraine Motel.
This is the full speech
