Today is Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Here is an excerpt from his famous "I Have a Dream" speech, made on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in August 1963, which continues to inspire us nearly 48 years later.
"Let freedom ring...And when this happens, when we allow freedom to 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!"
