When I was a kid, the name Martin Luther King, Jr. was like an electric current running through Black neighborhoods. The March on Washington had galvanized the civil rights movement and Black people could not stop talking about King's "I Have a Dream" speech and the real possibility that a change was going to come. It’s been nearly 58 years since King’s iconic speech and his unifying vision but as the events of 2020 spill over into 2021, we still face the same old problems. And that’s why I, too, have a dream.
