Thanks for posting this. It is beautiful. Martin Luther King, Jr., changed the U.S. and even the world possibly more than any other person. Not just because of what he stood for, not because of how he made a speech, but because he taught us that one person can make a difference. Thank you for this tribute.

Thank you so much for this video. I watched it for the first time yesterday and I will never think of the day we elected our first minority president without thinking of your work. You crystalized for me how extraordinary today is when you consider that people who could not choose where to sit or drink or work are voting for a person of color for president less than a lifetime later. We have Dr. King to thank for who we are today. I am sure he is smiling somewhere today.

Son incredibly touching and the music was perfect.He certainly knew.It is almost enough to reignite my faith in Man.

And it worked.It's not perfect now, by any means, but he achieved integration.Now blacks can live anywhere, and go to same schools etc.This is what we all need to get in our heads (black and white).If we all do this sort of thing.. normal people... they CANT attack us, because the value of their money (and the power that goes with that), will vanish if they do.They CANNOT win, but the ILLUSION makes us THINK they can.But we need ALL the peopel for OUR common purpose

This deserves so many more views.

can we as Americans change the name of Martin Luther King Holiday to "Civil Rights Day"?Why should one man get more credit than all U.S. Presidents.. why should one man and his work consume us every year? Remind us about all the Civil Rights advances..instead of glorification of one man
