"This will be the day when all of God's children will be able to sing with a new meaning, "My country, 'tis of thee, sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing. Land where my fathers died, land of the pilgrim's pride, from every mountainside, let freedom ring."
--Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s “I Have A Dream” Speech, Washington, DC, August 28, 1963.
