28 août 1963 - March On Washington
Description:
A massive march in Washington DC organized by MLK to highlight the difficulties black Americans still faced one century after emancipation. About 250,000 gathered around the Lincoln Memorial and the climax of the event was Martin Luther King's speech, "I Have A Dream". It is important because it reveals that blacks are still not free, even though they are no longer legally enslaved.Ajouté au bande de temps:
