"I think it's important because we need more individuals to know that we can continue to dream," said youth pastor Asa Clark. "What he did was not just for black people, it wasn't just for the inclusion of segregated Individuals, specifically black and white."

As a pioneer for social justice and reform Clark says members of his church are following in the footsteps of Dr. King.
