Friends of MLK
Friends of MLK Inc. is a non-profit organization based in Davenport, Iowa, dedicated to promoting civil and human rights for all races and creeds, inspired by the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Established in 2016, the organization emerged from a task force aimed at commemorating Dr. King's contributions and advocating for equality within the Quad City area.
Located at the historic site of mixed-race establishments from the late 19th to mid-20th century, Friends of MLK focuses on the development of the MLK Memorial Park and Interpretive Center. The project honors the rich cultural history of the area, including notable figures such as Linsey Pitts, the first African American saloon owner in Davenport.
