“I’m glad that I’m equal.” 13-year-old Gabriella Valderrama is a student at Booker T. Washington High School in Memphis, Tennessee. At her school — the first public high school for black Memphians — the life of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. remains a daily and subtle pull for students. Many of their parents weren’t alive when Dr. King marched and died in this area. But the kids are quick to recall when they first learned about Dr. King, when they visited the site of his death, when they heard his still-familiar cadence. The @ニューヨーク・タイムズ reporter @alanblinder asked 6 students to reflect on how his work and legacy shape their own lives a half-century after his assassination. “He stood up for his people, and I think that when he stood up for his people, he stood up for me because I’m different,” Gabriella said. “I’m thankful for it. Whenever I’m afraid to do something, I think about his ‘I Have a Dream’ speech, and I tell myself I can do it.” @mirandabarnes photographed Gabriella and 5 other students.
