Read the story behind the famous "I Have a Dream" speech.
It is a pity that there is no available footage of this historic speech. Not just because it is so historic, but because all of us need this reminder to fight against our own human natures-- the drive we all have to despise our enemies, to hate those who are different from us. In this speech, Martin Luther King Jr. did not just speak, he preached about one of the hardest parts of his faith, to love our enemies, and masterfully wove it into the march's theme of demanding equal rights for people of color... and he did it all without preparation, as he shoved aside the notes and outline that he was originally going to speak from.
