MLK Day


Flory Academy of Science and Technology ifth-grader Aleksey Terry gives a moving rendition of Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech at the school's annual assembly on Thursday morning.

I was disappointed to see that we didn't have enough space this week to run my favorite shots with this story about a Russian boy who recites the MLK "I Have a Dream" speech. Here's the story link:

And here's the Decisive Moment shot. Following his speech, as teachers and parents wiped tears from their faces, the boy walked to the back of the audience to greet his neighbor, Christine Lute, who came specifically to hear him give the speech. What a moment.
