I Have A Dream Legacy Lives On: Imagine Project

To me, Dr. Martin Luther King's legacy was his unyielding courage to imagine, develop and express his ideas, both intellectually and emotionally in a bid to peacefully effect positive change.

  • At 33, he was pressing the case of civil rights with President John Kennedy
  • At 34, he galvanized the nation with his "I Have a Dream" speech
  • At 35, he won the Nobel Peace Prize
  • At 39, he was assassinated, but he left a legacy of hope and inspiration that continues

"Life's most persistent and urgent question is: What are you doing for others?" -Dr. Martin Luther King MLK DAY  

83rd Birthday Present: Free online, more than 1 million of Dr. King works, papers and images. Keeping the winds of change in our sails.
