50th Anniversary, 28 August 1963 (I Have A Dream)
Last Wednesday we remembered the 50th anniversary of Martin Luther King, Jr.'s "I Have A Dream speech." Where were your on that day that millions gathered on the Mall in Washington D. C.? I was a beginning sophomore in High School, in northwest Oklahoma.
I Have a Dream Speech, Martin Luther King's Address at March on Washington
August 28, 1963. Washington, D.C. "When we let freedom ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual, Free at last! free at last! thank God Almighty, we are free at last!"
May each generation keep this dream alive! 1963 was the beginning and we need to keep it alive and moving forward. We shall march ahead and not turn back! I, too, have a dream, that all will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by their character. This is our hope! Let Freedom ring for all, with equality and justice for all!
