Will D. Campbell, alone on the motel balcony, gazing out into the night.To mark the 41st anniversary of MLK's assasination, TIME has published previously unreleased photos that photographer Henry Groskinsky took at the Lorraine hotel the night he died.
"This photograph was probably made almost as soon as we got there, because there were a lot of people milling about in the dark, and then all of a sudden it cleared up. When I saw him standing there, alone, I thought to myself, 'Wow.' This isn't a posed picture. He's in deep pain, standing there by himself, as if asking, 'My God, what has happened here?'"
