The Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s "I Have A Dream" speech, and his image of a "beloved community" collaborating for mutual support and social progress were fondly recalled, but the event also demonstrated an evolution in consciousness about the diversity included in that "community," as evidenced in rally comments by SOUTHERN CHRISTIAN LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE PRESIDENT MARTIN LUTHER KING, III. Previous march anniversary organizers have not been so ready to acknowledge the role of lesbians and gays in the "beloved community," but this time NATIONAL GAY AND LESBIAN TASK FORCE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR MATT FOREMAN was specifically asked to be a rally speaker. He praised the original March on Washington organizing of openly gay Bayard Rustin, and then made a compelling argument linking the rally's emphasis on empowerment through electoral politics to the anti-gay backlash expected in the 2004 campaign.
