TDW 1706 - Final Moments Of Martin Luther King 

the real rosa parks bus is at the henry ford museum in dearborn mich along with the chair abe lincoln was shot in and jfk's limo he was shot in. lots on very cool historical stuff there. you should check it out one day. its also connected to greenfield village, basically an outdoor museum with historical houses and things

It's sad that the Lorraine Motel became an infamous symbol of hate, for back in its time it was a symbol of racial tolerance and cooperation. A black owned motel, it was one of the only places where black and white musicians could congregate and socialize when they were in town recording at the nearby Stax Recording Studios (whose museum you should visit before leaving town). Otis Redding & Steve Cropper together wrote many of Otis's hit records while hanging out at the motel, including "Sittin' On The Dock of the Bay."

And I've said it before, but Adam, you are the best teacher I've ever had. I've learned so much from you, things I never would have researched otherwise. Thank you for your efforts!

I’m a Canadian and was a child when he was assassinated. Many years later in my 60s I took a bus tour to Memphis. We boarded the bus for what I thought was a tour of the record studios. Before I knew it we were at the Lorraine Motel. I got out and took pictures. The tears streamed down my face and I couldn’t stop. It was uncontrollable. I was embarrassed because I was the only one crying. It’s sad that we haven’t come very far since then.

I loved today's vlog very much. I've always wanted to visit there. I was fortunate enough to visit the recently constructed MLK Memorial in D.C. which is another very powerful and moving experience. Great vlog Adam. Thank you.

His last words was actually “Ben, make sure you play ‘Take My Hand, Precious Lord’ in the meeting tonight. Play it real pretty.” And another thing when they come to repair anything to the motel and they’ve been doing this for I think about 2 or 3 decades(I’m not sure how long) trying to clean up the pool of blood Reverend Doctor Martin was laying in when he was shot they come back the next day to finish the repairs or within the next few days and it’s right back to the way it was they’ve even replaced the concrete slab I heard once (I’m sure they wouldn’t do that) but it keeps coming back so after a long time they just gave up and left it there Some people think it’s Martin trying to telling them something I just think it’s how much he bled out and how thick it was because blood will only leak on to a certain point and then it will start to soak into the ground it’s in and it will be hard to get rid of but if anyone has made it this far thank you for reading and have a wonderful day

I am not a religious man, but I do honour and respect any person who has changed or is changing the world for the better regardless of if they are religious or not! More power to those who want to good and make our world a better place for all!

Incredibly powerful vlog today Adam. I 'll definitely be visiting these places on my travels.

Fascinating! I am a history buff so these types of vlogs always mean a lot to me. Thank you for once again doing it the right way. The "silent tour" through the museum was perfect.

Adamthewoo - As a Canadian, whom is into American history. I thank you for the poignant and history based vlogs. I will continue to watch like I have for the last two years! Thanks Professor Woo! All the best from the Great White North!

Awesome!! I visited the final resting place & birth home of MLK a few months ago. Very moving. Thanks for sharing, Adam. I really enjoyed this!

I've always wanted to go there. Great Video, Adam. I was fortunate enough to go to the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr National History Site in Atlanta Georgia last year. Visited his birth home, Ebenezer Baptist Church where he preached, and his final resting place with his wife, Coretta. Highly recommend for anyone who is interested in the life of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr & civil rights in general

I'm glad you brought this sad piece of history to your viewers today. I was 13 when Dr. King was slain, and I still get emotional every time I think about it. He accomplished so much during his short lifetime. Some people are born to be leaders and Dr. King was one of those people. His loss to the nation is so great that it can't be measured.

I was researching this just the other night. Really tragic but thanks for posting a video on it Adam, really tugs on the heart strings

I like how you get the exact angles of the original photos then go back and forth to show it. Good job

I really enjoy seeing these slices of history. From the big tragic moments to the untold stories, you do a fine job of keeping the content entertaining and fresh. Thank you for sharing with us Adam.

Love that your being very respectful and quite in the museum.

Thanks for all the good work Adam, your blogs have become a important part of many people's day.

Another great vlog, Adam. It is great to see angles we never see of historic locations. Enjoy Memphis and the great state of Tennessee as we enjoy vicariously. Safe travels!

Thank you for showing this Adam, it means a lot.

303 or 307 . The mystery continues

Thank you for taking us there.

Hi Adam, greetings from England, your vlogs are so interesting and informative, I really look forward every day to watching them. Thank you for taking us with you on your travels.

Adam, this was absolutely great filming! I always look forward to your videos but your filming and research is amazing. Hugs, Diane

Martin Luther King was an extraordinary man. He was gone way too soon. He made a huge impact

Morning Adam great vlog love your film narrative. Your approach to this historic moment is unique.

Thank you Adam. I live vicariously through your vlogs and I learn a lot from your posts. You're an amazing teacher. Keep up the great work.

I love your videos. As a history teacher, you are helping the new generation to learn history in ways that are impossible to do in a traditional classroom. Thank you for your awesome work.

Primarily consider the content of a person's character before anything else. A philosophy we should all follow.

Man I am loving the content of the vlogs Adam. I feel like you are giving me a guided tour of history.

I really enjoy your daily History Lesson. You visit places I know I will,never see in my lifetime. So thank you for taking the time to show whoever is watching. Take care Adam.

Hi Adam, I have really enjoyed your channel for a while now. I like the variety of topics that Large Marge has enabled you to let all of us experience vicariously through your eyes. You and Justin Scarred have motivated me to start exploring more than ever before. I was able to take my mom on a road trip through California a few months ago and we experienced Salvation Mountain (I am not religious but can appreciate Leonard Knight's devotion. I am amazed at the effort he put into it.), The Salton Sea, numerous funky roadside attractions, and some traditional travel destinations like Disneyland (My mom's first visit there was in 1957. Her only other visit was in 1984 so it was almost a completely new experience for her), La Brea Tar Pits, and Hearst Castle. I want to thank you for motivating me to explore this way. It created an experience I will always treasure. I also want to thank you for showing me that the various Visitor's Centers can be a worthwhile stop. I stopped at my first one this week in West Wendover, NV. It was definitely worth the time. If you ever pass through that way you should check out the center, The Wendover Air Base (It is where thee Enola Gay and Bockscar crews practiced bomb runs in preperation for ending WW II, and Danger Cave. The cave was used as a recreation hall during the war and is also an archaeological site. A little place with a lot of important history.

i can't exactly explain why i enjoy alll of your videos so much, but i do. Thank you.

Adam I learn more from you daily then I ever did in school. Thanx

Greetings from Canada Thank you for being so respectful and informative. You're a very inciteful man. Keep them coming. Xoxo

Thank you for your blogs I live in Australia and u take me on so many wonderful trips and I learn so much . The towns and the places. When I am not well I watch them again bless

The photograph from the night prior when he's entering the motel, the room number looks like 301, not 307. There's also two windows behind him, today there's only one. Possibly a corridor leading to room 302's former location.

Thank you for sharing this. Thank you for the sometimes serious things you share with us. I have learned a lot in recent days...

Thank you Adam..... your vlogs like these are so enlightening....I enjoy my vicarious learning through you...keep travelling man...

Very Powerful video Adam. I love your videos and the inspiring and meaningful messages that you impart on us all. It just goes to show once again, what a Sweetheart of a Guy you truly are.

U2's "Pride in the name of love" played in my head during this. ..... Early morning , April 4.....shots rang out in the Memphis sky. Free at last, they took your life. They could not take your pride.

Dr. King asked for EQUALITY and we ALL can agree on that.

Great video. Got to stop by here on my way back to Detroit in 2016 and I just froze in amazement

Adam, you've really stepped things up the past week. Some excellent work my friend. Awesome. Have a great weekend, buddy.

thank you Adam for a very moving vlog so so sad . I personally think Dr King was a very great man may he rest in peace.

Adam your vlogs of late have been above and beyond! Keep it up mate!

Thank you Adam I was in Memphis a few years back and wanted to check out the museum, but didn't get the chance, so thanks for the look inside.

You do a great job with the historical locations, thank you Adam!

I love history and would love to go to the museum.

What a powerful piece of history. It breaks my heart to see such an amazing man laying on a piece of cement knowing that he only has a few more moments alive. Thank you for the sensitivity and respect that you have shown in creating this. Safe travels Adam.

I've so looked forward to and enjoyed all these on your road trip. This one and JFK one were awesome. Thank you Adam.

My family and I went to this museum a couple of years ago. It is someplace that everyone should visit. Thank you for your added research about the building. I hope you figure out your mystery!

And great "Shining" reference by the way, Adam.

good morning adam the woo I am such a huge fan of yours from Minnesota

Good afternoon Mr Adam Have a fantastic weekend you Thewoo followers out there in the world Greetings from Oslo,Norway

I find new things I want to research in every video! Thank you again! I know it may get lonely, but what you do is much appreciated!

Adam was walking in Memphis, walking with his feet ten feet off of Beale.

Yet another awesome video and I got to watch it before work glad to see you're enjoying the Tennessee awesomeness and I hope to see you when you travel through Nashville if you travel through Nashville you never knowlarge Marge is going to take you

I visited the Civil Rights museum in Memphis, and it was an eye-opening experience. Well done, Adam.

Great video as always Adam. Always starts the day off right.

Come to Dearborn Michigan. I will show you around. You would love Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield village and all the other stuff!

do you think you'll ever make it up to DC and do a vlog there? and what a great video. definitely one of my faves; very powerful.

I can't believe I'm three months late knowing you were in a place so very special to me. Wish I could have met you. Thank you so much for this vlog, Adam. I'm grateful for the kindness in which you spoke on this subject.

One of your best videos yet. I almost want to suggest following up this video volg with Dr. Kings final resting place and Museum in Atlanta.

I need to see this museum in person❤

🕊MLK Rest In Peace. 🕊

Excellent job covering this topic. Safe travels to you, Adam.

Very interesting video Adam. I learned some things of history I've never really looked at before. Thanks for showing us. Stay safe on your travels.

I've been to the Museum of Tolerance in Los Angeles and it was heart-wrenching. Just the few moments in your vlog of this museum was emotional for me, too. But I love learning, so I thank you for taking us with you, Adam. Dr King was a good, Godly man who was making a huge difference in this world. I believe, had he lived, our world would be so much different... more united, tolerant and understanding. Dr King's death, out of all the recent ones you've vlogged about recently, is the only one that has brought me to tears while watching. It was truly a tragic event that has left our lives for the worse.... and I say that as a white woman, if anyone cares to know. As far as the 303/307 debate... I'm wondering, was there a 307 room there somewhere? Maybe down that hallway? I figure it got changed to better go with the flow of room numbers and the person who did it simply wasn't thinking about the historic factor to those numbers. But what do I know? lol

6:16 I can't help but notice how nice they have the bus driver talking to Rosa lol When that really happened I guarantee you he said ALOT worse then "please move to the back of the bus."

loved today's vlog, always nice to see your videos every morning. hope your travels are going great :)

Great work Adam! I really appreciate it that you cover so many facets of American history and culture. Your work is outstanding and the people that follow you are awesome.

303? 307? Mandela Effect, perhaps?

this is different than anything in the world, May Martin Luther King Rest In Peace.

always great videos mr.woo, don't change anything. you should be on tv. I just came back from ohio to new Hampshire and thought of your videos the whole drive and how much I am admire them. wish I had your life, safe travels.

Keep doing what you're doing, Adam! Great vlog today.

I've been told by my elders, always Greet people with a Smile. A Smile goes a long way.

Be careful in Memphis Adam as I have heard Memphis isn't very safe.

Safe travels and thanks for bringing us along. Hopefully the mystery will be answered.

Im finally getting around to catching up on these videos and I have to say that this one was very touching. You totally should teach history! You have such a way of telling the stories from the past.

I never understood how people thought it was okay to treat other people as less then themselves.

I was eleven at the time of his assasination. Maybe the room number was changed To confuse us. Obviously right. Wow. I don't get it.

I was at the Civil Rights Museum a few years ago. A very moving experience for sure. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Memphis. Great vlog, Adam!

Another great video. Your vlogs always reflect life appropriately. Not every day can be humorous and, oftentimes, we need to reflect on more serious subject matter.

One day I'll start a Vlog series where I track the places the Woo has been. I'll be like "The Majestic was parked right by that tree in the background you can match the shots to DaliyWoo 1889776."

good morning. I don't like how the have a dream speech is copyright. they can't air it even on his holiday. family needs to get paid.

Absolutely fantastic work Adam, keep up the good work.

Thank you Adam for showing this to us.

Adam you just found a glitch in the matrix du-du-du-du du-du-du-du

Adam, do you ever question what the government says?

This is by far the best of the best videos. Thank you Adam!

Thank you for making this video!! 1 minute in and I’m amazed by your efforts!!

301 not 307. Look at the pics 307 was down a ways to the right

Adam, some would say its the mandala effect! lol jk....303 or 307.....

Thanks, thats was a great blog mate. Love watching your vids.

A thought provoking vlog!!! I do appreciate how you handle the more serious subjects. Thank you for your dedication in making these daily vlogs!! Enjoy your Friday!

303 v/s 307 = Mandela Effect residual!

all those people who fought for civil rights back then would be ashamed to see their people act up the way they do today. they were respectful people.

Thank you Adam. It is amazing you seem to be the only one who noticed that number change.

I just today found your RU-vid channel, and now I'm like binge watching your videos. Very cool videos. Keep them up.
