King Memorial Opens to the Public In Washington

D.C. Mayor Vincent Gray (C) and other Washington leaders stand at the base of the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial in Washington, DC, on August 23, 2011. This is the second day the Memorial is open to the public; it will be dedicated on August 28, the same day Dr. King gave his "I Have a Dream" speech on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial 48 years ago.
