Today I walked up the steps that Martin Luther King Jr. gave his "I have a dream speech" to witness the power of the Abraham Lincoln memorial. It is so easy to forget how much was sacrificed in order to uphold our unalienable rights. We've all seen the pictures, but as an American, to witness these memorials in real life and reflect upon the principles that they stand for is powerful moment that all citizens should do at least once in their lifetime.
