    Ringgold describes a dream she has about Martin Luther King. It's a dream that includes scenes of segregation and protest--which, in a brilliant leap of imagination, she imagines King experiencing as a child--and scenes from King's adult life, from the Montgomery bus boycott to the March on Washington to his assassination. Framing this dream is a uniquely personal vision of Ms. Ringgold's own in which she visualizes the people of the world gathering in King's memory to trade in their prejudice, fear, and hate for hope, peace, and love--the fulfillment of King's dream of nonviolent social change.
