More Than a Dream
I watched a video that made me sad. Not only were people not able to say what else Martin Luther King said other than "I have a dream," but I wasn't able to come up with anything else either. I challenge you to read the entirety of Martin Luther King Jr.'s famous speech and a phrase or line that inspires you that is NOT "I have a dream" and write about it.

This isn't just a challenge, this is a dare you to do. It will take research, time and effort. But I will take part of that effort for you. Title your piece the year you were born. Mine is: 1947. To the rest, check the description. Who dares walk this way with me??
The year you were born, What did things cost that year verses now? You can halfway cheat by copying my "current prices", but start with your year first. Look at mine so you have a strong indication what you are looking for. This is put under history because we have lived from birth to now and have seen many changes. This isn't for the faint of heart, but I dare you to join me!

What if?
Pick a single moment in history. Anything, no matter how big or small. Change the outcome. A different outcome in a battle, a different person survived a duel, different arrival time for a train or even a blade of grass grew at a different angle. Anything... Describe how the world would be in the present day if that difference had occurred.
