George Lucas Donates $1M for MLK Memorial

WASHINGTON — "Star Wars" director George Lucas has donated $1 million to build a memorial to civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. on the National Mall, backers of the project announced.

"The ideals and principles for which Dr. King fought have never been forgotten and are as relevant today as they were 40 years ago," Lucas said Thursday, adding in a statement that a memorial ensures King's message will endure for future generations.

More than $40 million has been raised for the memorial, with $100 million needed to finish the project, organizers said.
