Martin Luther King, Jr. caps a major civil rights march in Washington with a speech for the ages at the Lincoln Memorial. “I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. I have a dream today.”

Connecticut Senator Abraham Ribicoff condemns1 the police for the violence when he nominates a fellow senator for president. “And with George McGovern as President of the United States, we wouldn't have to have Gestapo tactics in the streets of Chicago.” But Vice2 President Humphrey is the nominee3 for the deeply divided Democrats4. He narrowly loses to Republican Richard Nixon in the fall.
