Blog Assignment #3:
For more than 20 years, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr's birthday has been celebrated as a national holiday in the United States.
In 1963, King made one of his most famous speeches; the "I have a Dream Speech," delivered on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial. During that speech, Dr. King spoke of his dream that people would be judged on the content of their character, and that people of all races, religions, etc., would be able to exist peacefully.
It's been nearly 45 years since Dr. King made that speech. However, there are still parts of his dream that remained unfulfilled.
Your assignment: Discuss the parts of Dr. King's dream that remain unfulfilled (hasn't happened yet). Explain why you think those things haven't happened, and what we can do to acheive them.
If you need to review Dr. King's speech, here's a link, which also provides audio as well.

Thanks!
