Martin Luther King, Jr.: "I Have a Dream"
VHS, 25 min., 1986
When 200,000 civil rights marchers, black and white, gathered at the steps of the Lincoln Memorial on August 28, 1963, they expected to hear strong words from their spiritual leader, Martin Luther King, Jr. What they did not expect was a speech of such heartfelt passion and poetic eloquence that it echoes still in our memory.
