He had a dream and we're still working toward it. Who is this inspiring Civil Rights leader?

His spirited "I Have A Dream" speech still rings in our ears. Martin Luther King, Jr., led peaceful protests, calling for equality, saying: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal." His words and actions – including the March on Washington – spurred the Civil Rights Movement, leading to the passage of the Civil Rights Act in 1964, which ended segregation. Martin Luther King, Jr., was assassinated in 1968, and MLK day has been celebrated in his honor since 1986.
