August 28th 1963, the day a dream was born

The date of 28^th August 1963 will be always remembered because Martin Luther King, an activist in the African-American Civil Rights Movement, gave his speech called I have a dream in front of 250.000 people during the March on Washington, with the help of other leaders and organizations to demand an end to racial segregation in public schools, meaningful civil rights legislation, protection of civil rights workers from police brutality, a minimum wage for all workers and self-government for Washington D.C.
