There were some powerful and poignant moments during the commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s “I Have a Dream” speech. One was William Ellison, 92, who brought back the exact same sign he had when he participated in the original legendary event five decades ago (above).

To witness the sea of humanity flood the Washington Mall and — including the Martin Luther King and Lincoln memorial — is a testament to the monumental importance of that unforgettable day 50 years ago. Take a look at the Instagram and Twitter photos from the March on Washington 2013.
