MLK in North Texas
When I think about Martin Luther King, Jr., images of the Montgomery Bus Boycott, Selma, and the "I Have a Dream" speech in Washington, D.C. come to mind. However, I find it interesting to note that Dr. King also visited North Texas on several occasions. In 1959, the civil rights leader gave an address at a theater on Commerce Street in Fort Worth, and he also spoke at the Music Hall at Fair Park in 1963 and at McFarlin Auditorium at SMU in 1966.
