A variety of trees, shrubs and flowering plants encircle a life-sized, bronze statue of the slain national civil rights leader. Surrounding the statue is the King Memorial Wall, which includes almost 2,500 brick inscribed with the names of state and national supporters of the facility.

Martin Luther King Jr. would turn 78 on January 15, but he never got that chance. Because of an assassin's bullet, we see him - the man who marched civil rights into America's living rooms - in perpetual middle life. Forever, he is 39 years old.

That's about how old King looks in Maryland's first statue of the American hero, whose birthday we celebrate as a national holiday this week. Dedicated last August 27 at Anne Arundel Community College, it is not quite the newest of the county's five sculpture groups that stand as memorials to the achievements of African Americans.
