MLK in Texas
When I was in school, no one ever mentioned Martin Luther King, Jr., and he had no presence in the school curriculum. My first exposure was in a religion course in college.

In fact, he even spoke at a now-defunct theater on Commerce Street in Fort Worth. This Star-Telegram story by Bud Kennedy tells about that visit.
