Today marks the 50th Anniversary of the "March on Washington", the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation. Dr. Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" speech has inspired countless citizens to aspire to greatness and to impact generations.
US Senator Tim Scott, the first African American U.S. Senator in South Carolina history, shares the following thought with you on this 50th Anniversary of the March on Washington.
"Our nation and our state remain grateful for the strength and dedication of civil rights leaders like Dr. King and those who participated in the March on Washington. Their efforts opened opportunities for generations that followed, and continue to provide inspiration as we work to defend those who can't defend themselves."
Thank you, Senator Scott, for your leadership!
