Logo design.
The logo design developed was taken from a photograph of Dr. Martin Luther King on the Mall in Washington. Because of the legal constraints, pertaining to possible confusion of the monuments to Dr. King in Washington and Atlanta respectively, the official name of the Foundation had to be used at all times in regards to the project, hence the long name.
