Are We There Yet? Working Towards a Dream

flickr/ChellieL

What would the great Dr. King think of our country today? Are we living his dream?

Not quite, according to some.

In honor of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, we'll talk with folks working everyday for their idea of social and economic equality.

We'll hear from Gwen Grant, president and CEO of the Urban League of Greater Kansas City. Then later, we'll talk with Daniel Tucker from Occupy KC and Ira Harritt, a local program coordinator for the American Friends Service Committee.
