Admissions Image Choice

I have chosen this iconic image of Dr. Martin Luther fagot, Jr. after agreeable the 1964 Nobel Peace Prize in Baltimore, Maryland due to its historical and emblematic significance. The image is representative of Dr. Kings philosophy of peace and residential district building thanks to the gathering of hands and bodies on a evidently random street corner in America during the Civil Rights, which is to enounce a cultural and racial landscape full of historical struggles and a hope for an equal future.The image is centered on sunlit Dr. King grasping hands with a group of African American women supporters. He is sitting in the back seat of a black sofa bed and he has a luminous smile that Leonard Freed captured as he rancid toward his fellow citizens as his bodyguard keeps eye toward the street.There are two light uniformed police officers in the background with stoic expressions trying to mellowtail it out their duties of maintaining the public peace. The photograph carries s uch an immense historical gloominess due to its closeness to Dr. Kings assassination but it to a fault has a lightness of being that lifts the veil of racism through the smiles and gratitude indispensable in its subjects.This image by Leonard Freed at the height of the Civil Rights movement illustrates the will and devotion that Dr. King mobilized in his everyday life. The people he surrounded himself with shared a common goal for civil compare with a spirit of compassion and grace in the face of plague and discrimination.For this reason, this image will forever remind me to keep my head high and my visions clear even in the face of the most daunting challenges and obstacles.
