Something else we outsourced, huh?
There has been some criticism of this. Apparently, it’s the content of the sculptor’s character that was taken into consideration.
Personally, I kind of like the memorial. I like the breaking the wall aspect of it.
MLK, Jr. is believed to have been a Republican. And ... in a time when there are lefty extremists encouraging a violent revolution to get what they want ... I appreciate MLK’s non-violent stance.
Yes.
Lei Yixin is a Chinese national. The granite stone itself is from China. The work was done in Changsha in Hunan province and shipped to Baltimore. Americans weren't good enough to complete the reassembly so he brought his own 10 man team of Chinese stone masons over as well.
MLK III says he's ok with this outsourcing of the monument to the oppressive, human rights abusing communists of China because he thinks the statue looks good compared to some he's seen.
