🗓 On This Day: August 28, 1963 More than 250,000 people gathered at the Lincoln Memorial to call for civil and economic rights. It was here that Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his iconic “I Have a Dream” speech, but the march wasn’t just about speeches—it was about jobs, justice, and policy change. Organized by leaders like A. Philip Randolph and Bayard Rustin, the march helped lead to the Civil Rights Act of 1964. 📣 Today, the push for economic equality, living wages, and inclusive opportunity continues across communities nationwide. #MarchOnWashington #MLK #OnThisDay #StillMarching #CivilRightsHistory #NCRM
