Good point, Naureen! So looking at posting: On this day in 1964, the Rev. Martin Luther King received the Nobel Peace Prize for his human rights work in combating racial inequality through nonviolence. In this public domain image from Wikimedia Commons, he waves to the crowd from the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington D.C., where he delivered his “I Have a Dream” speech.
