Law Day 2013 -- Realizing the Dream: Equality for All
The promise of equality under the law is what has made America a beacon to other nations. It is a pledge clearly set forth in the Declaration of Independence and in the opening words of the Preamble of the Constitution, "We the People." It is, in the words of Abraham Lincoln, the proposition to which our nation is dedicated.
The year 2013 marks the 150th anniversary of the issuance of the
Emancipation Proclamation. In 1963, during the Proclamation’s centennial, Rev.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. stood in front of the Lincoln Memorial and called
upon our nation to live up to the great promise, enshrined in its founding
documents, of equality for all. Five decades later, the inspirational words of
Rev. Dr. King’s "I Have a Dream" speech continue to resonate and challenge us to
live up to our national ideal of equality under the law. The legacy of the Civil
Rights Movement can be seen in the strides that have been made against
discrimination based on race, gender, ethnicity, national origin, religion, age,
disability, and sexual orientation.
