Martin Luther King, Jr., is well- known for his work in civil rights and for his many famous
speeches, among which is his moving “I have a dream” speech. But fewer people know much about
King’s childhood. M.L., as he was called, was born in 1929 in Atlanta, Georgia, at the home of his
maternal grandfather. M.L.’s grandfather purchased their home on Auburn Avenue in 1909, twenty
years before M.L was born. His grandfather allowed the house to be used as a meeting place for a
