Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis film originally was shown at theaters as a "one-time-only" event on 24 March 1970 and ran 3 hours and 5 minutes. The proceeds from the $5 admission price were donated to the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Special Fund. It was later shown on US television, unedited and with limited interruption.
- Alternate versionsA second version, edited down to 103 minutes, was released onto videotape. It is missing the celebrety narratives and an opening montage of clips of militant black leaders with violent rhetoric contrasting to clips of Dr. King's non-violent messages, but includes the original introduction by Harry Belefonte, and consists entirely of newsreel footage.

Featured review
No one was more effective when talking about "a dream"
11/18/17. A bit on the long side, but at least you get the chance to listen to the entire "I have a dream." No denying that King was a force to be reckoned with. His oratory style is reminiscent of the fiery preacher of past, and still quite effective in inspiring its listeners to bigger and better things.
