'I Have a Dream' at 50: How Can Race Relations Be Improved in Marion?
It's the anniversary of the historical speech. How far have we come and how far do we still have to go?
With Martin Luther King Junior's "I Have a Dream" speech turning 50 years old today, celebrations are being held to honor the speech's impact and legacy.
In this spirit, I wanted to ask what you all feel would help to improve race relations in the City of Marion and in Iowa as a whole? How have things improved here in 50 years and what still needs to be done? Leave your thoughts in the comments below.
