On a near-freezing Sunday morning along Auburn Avenue in the Old Fourth Ward, bundled in layers and wearing a gray hat scrawled with the words “No War” in Sharpie marker, John Waters stood peering up at the brown and cream Victorian house where the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. was born in 1929.
Waters, 47, a drum teacher visiting Atlanta from New Haven, Connecticut, over the MLK holiday weekend, had visited the house once before, 12 years ago, with a group of nearly 70 students from his drill team.
