I
have a Dream
Come
to the Lewis J. Ort Library to view the displays on floor 3 celebrating Black
History Month and the 50 year anniversary of “I Have a Dream”. King delivered his speech,” I Have a Dream”
on August 28, 1963 to civil rights supporters during the
March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom.
King delivered his speech from the steps of the Lincoln Memorial. This speech signifies the defining moment of
the American Civil Rights Movement.
The display includes a photograph
of Martin Luther King, Jr., a copy of his speech, “I Have a Dream” as well as
books on King.
Learn
about artists, musicians, and writers from the Harlem Renaissance period by
viewing the materials in the third display case on floor 3. Some selected authors include Langston
Hughes, Zora Neale Hurston, and James Weldon Johnson. Art by Marvin Gray H. Johnson,
Archibald J. Motley, Jr., and the cover
to the Oklahoma City Museum of Art Exhibit (2009) provide some images of the
Harlem Renaissance.
