Google Arts & Culture has dedicated a comprehensive platform to African-American history, culture, and leadership. Covering the Civil Rights Movement, activism, and the role of racism in print media, it features historic speeches, art, and music, along with symbolic imagery—a photo, for instance, of Martin Luther King Jr.’s profound “I Have a Dream” speech of August 28, 1963. Let us not forget: “When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir.” —E.C.
