In front of the Lincoln Memorial and 200,000 civil rights supporters, in a speech directed to the entire nation, Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. gave voice today to the cries so many were begging to be heard.
"America has given the negro people a bad check. But we refuse to believe the bank of justice is bankrupt," King challenged.
At the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, King urged Americans to be accountable for the self-evident truth that all men are created equal, begging that all men would be guaranteed the rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
