(ST) Martin Luther King's address and March on Washington, DC which came to be called the "I Have a Dream" speech. It was delivered on August 28, 1963. Washington. "When we let freedom ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual, "Free at last! Free at last! Thank God Almighty, we are free at last!"

Prominent activists Cat and Elise of Occupy Los Angeles warn that while it may not be televised, "the Revolution will be crowdsourced."

Obama, is about indefinite detention and torture for anyone, called the NDAA (National "Defense" Authorization Act). SOPA (Stop Online "Piracy" Act) targets free use of the Internet.
