 let alone the same episodes. It can't be Danny Glover, I say to my co-host. Why would Montgomery put up a statue of Danny Glover? Who's it supposed to be? Martin Luther King Jr. Am I sure what it is about MLK statues that invite controversy? But I suspect it has something to do with everyone's own personal impression of the civil rights icon. Of course, Boston's memorial to Dr. King, a 20-foot-tall bronze sculpture called The Embrace, was brutally mocked.
