I Have A Dream...

An advocate for peaceful protest, King believed that battles could be won without shedding blood, that those fighting for Civil Rights had to be above those who fought against them.  His dream was that everyone would be equal as was promised in the Declaration of Independence and that no matter a man or woman’s creed, race, religion, or ethnicity, all would be able to come together as humans.  He believed our similarities, and not our differences, would bind us together.
