Building the Dream

Building the Dream recounts the bold idea for an MLK Memorial which originated at a small, informal gathering of King’s Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity brothers in 1983. The film follows the project through fundraising, design, bureaucratic hurdles, groundbreaking, and shows the stones arriving on site and being moved into place.
