Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., delivered his iconic “I Have a Dream” speech at the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. on August 28, 1963, at the height of the Civil Rights Movement's struggle for nationwide racial equality. His speech was meant to instill courage in his brethren who were protesting for the acclamation of civil rights of the African Americans, and forewarn their opponents that the Movement's demands couldn't be set aside.
