Pictured here is Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. in Miami at a little hotel called Hampton House Hotel in 1965. ⁠⠀⁠ ⁠⠀⁠ This hotel, which is now a museum and staple in Miami, was often visited by Black luminaries who were forbidden to stay at white-only hotels due to the Jim Crow era. Celebrities like Muhammad Ali, Miles Davis, Sammie Davis, JR., Sam Cooke, and Malcolm X stayed at this illustrious hotel. ⁠⠀⁠ ⁠ According to the Miami New Times, Dr. King “delivered an early version of his ‘I Have a Dream’ speech right here in Miami to a jam-packed room of people searching for hope at the Hampton House Hotel.”⁠⠀#mlk #mlkweekend Sources: historichamptonhouseofficial miaminewtimes
