Absolutely, an American Icon. The stamp that he put on our culture and nation was astounding and resonates even louder today. A truly great man.

MLK was a great American and human being. It's truly a tragedy he isn't around today. I'm sure he'd set alot of things straight.

I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal."

I'm saluting a man who not only helped forge the Civil Rights movement,but helped make America a better place,and a stronger country!

I wish more people knew about his life and not that he was the guy who gave the "I Have a Dream" speech. His entire outlook on the world and his way of dealing with things are what made him special.

Hail Martin Luther King Jr! A very special figure in our nations's rich history. A man who truly stood up for what he believed in and made a deep and lasting impact on the United States.

I second this post. The cursory look at the man behind the vision given in most schools just isn't enough to do him justice.
