TV pundit Glenn Beck will hold a rally today at the Lincoln Memorial where the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his “I Have a Dream” speech at the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom 47 years ago. Among the expected speakers is former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin.
Also today, the Rev. Al Sharpton and several other organizers will hold a march and rally commemorating the Civil Rights Movement. The “Reclaim the Dream” rally takes place at the site for a memorial under construction in King’s honor.
Do you plan to watch them on television? If you can, will you go to the Beck’s “Restoring Honor” rally or “Reclaim the Dream” march and rally organized by several community and civil rights leaders?
What do you think of Beck’s call also to “reclaim the civil rights movement” dream and to show support to the country’s military. Are the timing, location and purpose bothersome to you? Join the Beliefnet Community discussion.
