Happy MLK Jr. Day!

A very belated MLK Jr. Day. Unfortunately, since the holiday passed, so did the youngest son of the Kings, Dexter King.

Did you know that MLK Jr. visited Minnesota three times? January 22, 1951, almost 73 years ago, Martin Luther King Jr. visited Gloria Dei Lutheran Church in St. Paul, Minnesota (unfortunately not Duluth) for the first time. There were 1,400 attendees in attendance to see the minister, civil rights activist and political philosopher. None of his visits were to Duluth.
