Description:  This memorial to Dr. King was commissioned by the City of Denver. It features a central, core element where Dr. King is metaphorically standing on the shoulders of Rosa Parks, Gandhi, Frederick Douglas and Sojourner Truth. On the main pedestal is a tribute to Dr. King's Nobel Peace Prize. On each side of the main pedestal are two bas-relief panels that highlight the history of African Americans - from slavery to the marches of the 1960s. In addition, four granite historic panel elements highlight historic facts and Dr. King's quotations on: Slavery, The Struggle, Justice and Living The Dream. Each of these panels features a bronze sculpture that depicts, in visual form, the theme of the historic elements.
