On August 28, 1963, hundreds of thousands descended upon our nation’s capital to make a stand against poverty and racial discrimination.  The “March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom” went down in history as one of the most pivotal points of change in our country’s history.  One of the most notable highlights of the march was a speech delivered by the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., which later became known as the “I Have a Dream” speech.  In it, Dr. King cast a spot light on the social, racial and financial injustices that had plagued “the negro” since they had been “made free” exactly 100 years ago, to the day, by the Emancipation Proclamation.  This past August 28 marked the 50 anniversary of that historic day and King’s historic speech.  A day that is credited with being one of the most significant events that brought about The Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act in 1965.  But today, 50 years later, has the dream that so many marched, bled and died for come to fruition?   Is the so-called “negro” really free?  Have things changed for the better or have we squandered the inheritance of our elders and given ourselves over to a new slave master, sin?  Join us, as we search the Holy Bible to interpret Dr. Martin Luther King’s dream.
