Summary
"On August 28, 1963, more than 200,000 people marched on the United States capital to demand equal economic opportunities and civil rights for Black Americans. And at the end of the event, Martin Luther King Jr. took to the podium and delivered his unforgettable "I Have a Dream" speech. Now readers can step back in time to learn what led up to the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, how this historic demonstration unfolded, and the ways in which one inspiring day changed America forever"--, Provided by publisher
