Martin Luther King Jr At Montgomery State Capitol

American religious and Civil Rights leader Dr Martin Luther King Jr (1929 - 1968) speaks from a pulpit in front of the Montgomery State Capitol building at the conclusion of the Selma to Montgomery March, Montgomery, Alabama, March 25, 1965. He delivered the speech generally referred to as 'How Long, Not Long' (or 'Our God Is Marching On!'). Among those pictured are American author James Baldwin (1924 - 1987) (seated bottom left), activist Bayard Rustin (1912 - 1987) (with cigarette in his mouth), Bernard Lee (in V-neck sweater and glasses) and John Lewis (arms crossed), both of the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), and between them, union leader A Philip Randolph (1889 - 1979), and King's wife, activist Coretta Scott King (1927 - 2006) (in sunglasses, behind microphones). The pulpit, from the Dexter Avenue Baptist Church, was the one from which King had preached during his tenure at the Montgomery church. (Photo by Steve Schapiro/Corbis via Getty Images)
