Dotun Adebayo presents live from Washington DC ahead of the 50th anniversary of Dr Martin Luther King's 'I have a dream' speech and the March on Washington.
The mother of Trayvon Martin, Sybrina Fulton, tells Dotun why it was important for her to be in Washington DC to mark 50 years since Dr. Martin Luther King's 'I have a dream' speech. We also hear from Simeon Wright, the cousin of Emmett Till, who was 14 when he was murdered in 1955 for whistling at a white woman, and Rosa Parks' lawyer Fred Gray.
