About the dream.
“From every mountain side, let freedom ring.”
–Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
This past year, for our town’s Martin Luther King Day celebration, my friend Mike Bradley and I wondered: What if we had an anthem everyone could sing together? What if we could weave together “America the Beautiful” with Dr. King’s dream for all America? The sound that day of children’s voices, together with parents and grandparents, was incredibly uplifting. And so this project was born.
The hope is to encourage the singing of this song, and others like it, all across this land.
At a time when our country feels increasingly fractured, songs like this can help bring us together. They remind us of all we share in common: the promise of an America that is more than any of us alone.
