#MYOL History: Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Statue Unveiled in Washington D.C. (August 21st-27th)
More than 40 years after his assassination and nearly 50 years since he marched on Washington and gave his “I Have A Dream” speech, Dr. Martin Luther King has been honored with a memorial statue in the nation’s capital. The statue, made of stone, was unveiled yesterday. Sitting on 4 acres on the Tidal Basin on the National Mall, the dedication of the statue is set to take place on August 28th and could draw crowds of up to 400,000 people. The monument is the first African-American as well as the first person who did not serve as president to be memorialized.
#HMIC Streetball EXCLUSIVE: Butta Ball 1 Champs Raw Footage (Lawrence, MA$$) (August 21st-27th)
Dwayne Broadus aka Butta was a son, father and friend well known throughout the MVC for his passion for basketball, especially in Lawrence, MA. Last winter December 6, 2010 he passed away from a sudden heart attack. People have great memories of Butta but most familiar to me was his love for basketball. This is raw footage from the 1st Annual Butta Ball Tournament and it was suppose to rain but I think someone wouldn't let it unitl we were finished playing. Then, as soon as we won it started raining. Thanks to Stevie Martinez.
Rest In Peace Butta
