04 April 1968 - AMERICA IN MOURNING AFTER MLK'S SHOCKING ASSASSINATION:
When Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was gunned down on the balcony of a
Memphis hotel on April 4 of that year, it seemed like the death knell
for one of the United States' most effective - and divisive - social
movements.

As word of the assassination spread, public and private mourning for
King, including multiple funerals and a nationwide period of grief
began. So did riots, which broke out in nearly 100 American cities,
sparked by King's death but fueled by longstanding social inequity and
discrimination.

President Lyndon B. Johnson announced a day of mourning in King's honor.
In the immediate aftermath of King's murder, Robert F. Kennedy, then the
presumed Democratic nominee for president, quickly addressed King's
death, urging calm and asking people to choose love over lawlessness and
work toward justice.
