英语翻译
A towering new memorial was unveiled on the National Mall in Washington,D.C.this week.It honors the Rev.Martin Luther King Jr.(1929–1968) as a man of peace.
King delivered his "I Have a Dream" speech from the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in the nation’s capital on August 28,1963.On that day,more than 100,000 people had come to Washington in support of civil rights.
“A Stone of Hope”
The 30-foot-tall sculpture was crafted by Chinese artist Lei Yixin.It was inspired by a line from King's famous oration at the Lincoln Memorial:“Out of the mountain of despair,a stone of hope.”
The civil rights leader is depicted with his arms crossed,looking toward the horizon.He is the “stone of hope” emerging from a boulder — a “mountain of despair.”
A Historic First
King is the first person of color to have a memorial on the National Mall.The monument is surrounded by memorials to U.S.presidents — Thomas Jefferson,Abraham Lincoln,and Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
"It's nicely situated between the Jefferson and the Lincoln Memorial,so it's part of that conversation," said Ed Jackson,the architect who designed the King memorial."That corner of the mall has started to have a little bit of a theme about the ideas of our democracy between Jefferson,(Franklin D.) Roosevelt and now King."
Visitors to the site agree.“I think it's appropriate,” said Frank Myers,49,of King George,Va.“His contribution was just as great as any of the presidents.This country's come a long way as a result of him and people like him.”
