Hammerin' Hank: 1934 - 2021

 

He was a man who could not be more deserving of his own heroic reputation and character. He was a gem, a star, a prince--in reality one of American's great heroes. At the Martin Luther King National Historic Park I spotted his footprints the International Civil Rights Walk of Fame. 

If you click here, you can hear my story of finding him at the MLK Memorial.

    he sat in the Dawg Pound, alone, for games, and I told him, ‘Hank, we can get you better seats than that.’ He said, ‘I don’t want ‘em. I love sitting there.’”
