The King Center Imaging Project’s website will go live today on Martin Luther King day. The project makes thousands of documents by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and other prominent civil rights activists available to the public. The site was created using technology developed by JPMorgan Chase, through its Technology for Social Good program. The site employs Synaptic Storage as a Service, powered by EMC Atmos cloud-enabled storage.
A team of more than 200 people—including imaging and archival experts, military veterans, civil rights scholars, students from Morehouse and Spelman College and other universities–took months to complete the project. Nearly 200,000 documents were digitized. The documents include King’s most important works—the I Have a Dream Speech, Letter from Birmingham Jail and his Nobel Peace Prize Acceptance Speech can be all be viewed on the site.
