#OnThisDay In 1983, Martin Luther King Jr. statue is unveiled at Martin Luther King Jr. Park in East Buffalo. Since it’s unveiling, the 8-foot bronze bust of King has been surrounded by controversy with many calling to replace the statue due to the statue hardly resembling his likeness and overall misrepresenting King.

Do you remember when this statue was unveiled?
