'It could be anybody': Petitioners want to replace Martin Luther King Jr. bust


The "big black head" in Martin Luther King Jr. Park is a mistake and has to be replaced with a statue that looks more like the slain civil rights leader, according to Samuel A. Herbert, a community activist who is leading a petition drive.Herbert and three supporters kicked off a petition drive in front of the the 8-foot-tall bronze bust in MLK Park on Monday, King's birthday. Herbert said he remembers the unveiling of the bust in 1983. He said the committee that picked the design for the bust wanted an image that all were supposed to identify with and be inspired by."That was a huge mistake and for 34 years, this head has been sitting on this hill," Herbert said. "Two-and-a-half generations have grown up thinking that this image is Dr. King."

With some effort I'm confident this statue could be replaced.


I already made contact with:

creativesculpture.com just to see what a likeness of MLK Jr. might cost. They need to know the height of that statue.

IF they want to something really cool this guy could be contacted if he's still alive.

He created the stone monument at the Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial. Create something at a much smaller scale.
The cost was $120 million, and organizers said they are still trying to raise the last $5 million. The design gave form to a line from Dr. King's “Dream” speech — “With this faith we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope,” said Mr. Jackson.Aug 22, 2011
