MLK Jr. "I Have A Dream"

This is a picture of Martin Luther King Jr. making his most famous speech, "I Have A Dream" at the foot of the Lincoln Memorial. As everybody should know MLK Jr. was a civil rights activist and a very inspiring and courageous leader; and he gave many, just as inspiring speeches. But what makes this one the most remembered is the setting in which it was given, how it was given, and then how many people saw/received it. Martin Luther King delivering this clairvoyant speech of hope and equality. On the footsteps on the Lincoln Memorial, the man who freed slaves, and gave Martin Luther King the freedom of speech to deliver this speech. And then the millions of people gathered to hear this speech and the other millions watching it on their tv or listening to it on their radios. All these things play a factor into why this speech had such a significant impact in the civil rights movement, in the ending of segregation, in the road to equality, and in American History.
