“There had to be at least 300 people” who revere Dr. King’s legacy.

“It was a reenactment of the original photo by Bill Withers,” whose iconic pictures of the Civil Rights movement are on display at the Withers Collection Museum & Gallery on Beale Street, Morszart said, acknowledging Nashville’s Lower Broad Street row of honky tonks has eclipsed Beale Street.
