Issue of the important NAACP magazine founded by W.E.B. Du Bois published the month of Dr. King's assassination. Given the fact that they had almost no time to prepare this issue prints a memorial cover portrait an editorial titled "The Martyrdom of Martin Luther King Jr." and "NAACP mourns loss of Dr. King" in the "Battlefront section" alongside several articles that must have already been slated for publication. The intrepid B.T. Enterprises of Cleveland Ohio has also taken out a half-page ad selling memorial medals honoring Dr. King. This issue was mailed to Warren Morgan of Baltimore a civil rights activist who was also sadly the victim of racial violence: according to a March 1964 article in The New York Times Morgan at that time the head of Students Action for Equality at Maryland State College and six other African-American students were invited by the pastor to Easter Service at a White Methodist church and three of them were attacked after the service by a dozen young White men. Warren was hospitalized with a fractured cheekbone. Warren would go on to receive his doctorate at Oklahoma State University and work as the Vice President of Student Affairs at Florida A&M University and Dean of Student Affairs at Benedict College among others.
