“So even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream.
It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream.
I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.”
— Excerpt from Martin Luther King Jr.’s ‘I Have a Dream’ speech delivered Aug. 28, 1963 on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington D.C.
