Exploring the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. National Memorial (King
Memorial) in Washington, DC through a multi-faceted rhetorical
analysis of the site's visual and textual components, Jefferson
Walker reveals multiple critical, popular, privileged, and
vernacular interpretations of the site and Dr. Martin Luther King's
memory. Walker argues that the King Memorial and its related texts
help to universalize and institutionalize King's ethos - creating a
contentious rhetorical battleground where various people and
organizations contest the "ownership" and use of King's memory.
Walker uses these analyses to uncover how the site contributes to
the public memory of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
