Echoes of a Dream: MLK’s Defining Moment (1963)

This powerful image freezes in time the defining moment of the Civil Rights Movement – Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. delivering his immortal “I Have a Dream” speech during the 1963 March on Washington. More than just words, his visionary address became the soul of a movement that would transform America.

Though assassinated in 1968, King’s dream endures in classrooms, protests, and hearts across the nation. His call for racial justice and equality remains as urgent today as when it first echoed across the National Mall, proving that some voices grow stronger with time.
