With nearly 200,000 rights activists and the Washington Monument towering in front of him, Martin Luther King Jr. asked for justice for all Americans from the steps of the Lincoln Memorial today.
The event "what will go down in history as the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation," King said.
King gave his speech to cheering bystanders as a part of the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, claiming that African Americans are still not free.
