I'm glad that this monument exists because Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert Kennedy are two of my personal heroes. That speech by RFK when MLK was assassinated is one of my favorite speeches of all time so I love that this monument honors the two of them. The monument is located in a park within a residential neighborhood and it's open all day. There was no line when I visited on a Sunday afternoon.

I'll point out that RFK's Indianapolis speech immediately following the assassination of Martin Luther Ming, Jr., can be found on YouTube; and Wikipedia has a long article about the delivery of that speech in Indianapolis. Otherwise, I'll simply post some photographs of this small sub-section of the larger park.

It was very hard to find to get to this place back when I visited it for extra credit for my U.S. History class. However, it was indeed worth it! It was just so cool to be in such a historic place. There is also a little sign of the speech Robert Kennedy spoke at the spot. Very cool!

I love the MLK Jr and Robert Kennedy Jr monument. It has adequate benches and shade under trees. New play scape. Only reason for 4 starts is it needs some TLC. I hope the city provides funding to reopen the community pool and fix the in-ground lights by the monument.

I am proud of the legacy represented by Martin Luther King, Jr. And I am glad to live in a city where even on a frigid cold day people were spontaneously gathering at this memorial in Indianapolis testifying to the power of the greatest dream of all!
