Monday, Jan. 20, is Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Perhaps King’s most famous address was his “I Have a Dream” speech, delivered Aug. 28, 1963, on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. In that iconic appeal to the nation, King called for the end of racism. Below is a portion of his speech.
