• Martin Luther King Jr. was and remains the most prominent figure in the Civil Rights movement and Black History as a whole. He stood up for what he believed in and never once backed down. He had a vision, a dream that is alive today and more alive than ever. King gave his famous “I Have a Dream” speech in 1963 in which he stated, “Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred”. His legacy of peace and unity will live on for years to come and will never be forgotten.
