All over the country, scores of people will gather to honor one of America’s most prolific civil rights heroes,Dr. Martin Luther King Jr on his birthday.
King is regarded for championing equal rights for African Americans through organized boycotts and rallies as well as by encouraging non-violent protests.
King led the 1963 March on Washington, where he delivered his poignant “I Have a Dream” speech from the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington D.C.
