Dr. King accomplishments are now taught to American children of all races, and his teachings are studied by scholars and students around the world. He is the only non-president to have a national holiday dedicated in his honor and is the only non-president memorialized on the National Mall in Washington, D.C. He is memorialized in hundreds of statues, parks, streets, squares, churches, and other public facilities around the world as a leader whose teachings are increasingly relevant to the progress of humanity.
