Martin Luther King, Jr.: A Dream Realized

If Martin Luther King, Jr. would have been alive today, he would've turned eighty years old last Thursday. The man who gave perhaps one of the most famous speeches in history, was just 33 years old, the same age as I am currently, when he delivered the I Have A Dream speech in August 1963.

Today is not only a day to celebrate his legacy and life, but also remember his dream and how is has somewhat come to a realization today as we embark on the Inuguration of the 44th President of these United States, the first African American President, Barack H. Obama. 

Oh, how proud he is of us today. The Dream still lives on....
