April 04, 1968 — death of a dream???

40 years ago today, Martin Luther King Jr was assassinated.

Was this the death of a dream?

Or is the dream still alive?

Check out the impact of his life on the students of this diverse Bronx school: http://my.barackobama.com/page/invite/yestheycan

The measure of a hero is the extent that the dream has stayed alive, even after he is gone.

On this day, let us remember from where we have come and to where we are going. What is your dream for America. These Bronx students really embody my dream for America. Our future is in the hands of our youth . . . our future leaders.

What is your dream for America???
