On April 4, 1968, Martin Luther KIng Jr. was killed by a sniper while standing on the second floor balcony of the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, Tennessee. He was staying at the hotel for trying to help with the striking sanitation workers in the city. His murder had set off riots and outbursts across the nation. This pushed Congress to pass the Fair Housing Act in MLK's honor on April 11. This law made it illegal for sellers, landlords, and financial institutions to refuse service, rent, sell, and provide financial dwelling for everyone.
