From the Montgomery Bus Boycott to his "I Have a Dream" speech on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, Martin Luther King Jr. was (and still is) one of the most iconic and revolutionary figures in American history. He is honored today as the annual Martin Luther King Jr. Holiday Parade strolls down the streets of Albuquerque. Starting at 11 a.m., the march begins at the corner of University and Martin Luther King Jr. NE and reaches its conclusion at Civic Plaza, where a brief commemorative ceremony with music and talks by local community leaders awaits.
