Designed by Greg Perry, who created the piece in 1996 with sculptor Daniel Edwards, this artwork stands at the location where Robert F. Kennedy, on April 4, 1968, delivered a speech memorializing Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. (who had been assassinated earlier that day) Reflecting Kennedy's call for justice, non-violence and reconciliation, the sculpture portrays Kennedy and King reaching out to one another across a wide (but not insurmountable) gulf.
