At 6:01 pm, April 4, 1968, a shot rang out
A nation screamed
And the America so many knew was placed on a funeral pyre.

Actually, wasn't he the last one to die (be murdered) in the movement?

Depends on how you define the movement. for instance, there are still Panther deaths to come. I remember growing up and in everybody's grandmother's house there was a gold painted frame with it's own light and in the frame wear three pictures. John and Robert Kennedy and Dr. King. Many older black people of the time saw the Kennedy's as being a part of the movement as well. in which case, Bobby has yet to die.
