More than a half-century after the death of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., many of America’s youth are still in the dark about the life and legacy of the nation’s foremost Civil Rights leader.

Brainly, the world's largest online learning platform, recently surveyed more than 1,700 U.S. students to understand better what they know – and don't know – about Dr. King, his life, and his legacy. It turns out; the answer is not much. According to the data, 63 percent of U.S. students incorrectly identified Dr. King's accomplishments or were not aware of some of the most important things he did to contribute to America's Civil Rights Movement. 

When it opened in 1966, Arizona State University’s Hayden Library housed 600,000 volumes and served a campus population of about 20,000 students.
