WASHINGTON, July 21 (Xinhua) — The Donald Trump administration has released more than 230,000 pages of documents related to the assassination of civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr., U.S. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard said on social media on Monday.

She said the documents were released after questions about the murder had been swept under the rug for nearly 60 years.

“The documents include details of the FBI’s investigation into M.L. King’s murder, discussions of potential leads, internal FBI memos detailing the investigation, information about a former cellmate of James Earl Ray who said he discussed the alleged murder plan with Ray, and more,” Gabbard wrote.

On January 23, three days after taking office, D. Trump signed an order to declassify all remaining documents related to the assassinations of former President John F. Kennedy, his brother Robert, and M.L. King.

M. L. King is one of the most prominent figures in the American civil rights movement. He is widely known for his commitment to nonviolent campaigns against racial segregation and inequality, and for his famous “I Have a Dream” speech. –0–
