Christie’s to auction Martin Luther King’s “I Have a Dream” manuscript for charity

Christie's will hold an auction of the only known final handwritten draft of Martin Luther King Jr.'s famous "I Have a Dream" speech with the goal of raising funds for charitable organizations. This valuable document was recently rediscovered in a drawer of the desk of Edward T. Clayton, a collaborator of King who passed away in 1966. The auction represents a unique opportunity for collectors and institutions to support charitable causes through the acquisition of a significant historical item.
