Phillip Agnew's 50th Anniversary MLK Speech. Unforgettable.

Here's one of the most inspirational speeches, that didn't happen, from Phillip Agnew. You can just tell this guy put his heart and soul into what he probably thought was a huge opportunity, only to see his speech canceled for time. He didn't let it stop him.

Here's his message below, but check out the speech, it's historical:
Published on Aug 29, 2013: Director of Dream Defenders Phillip Agnew and leader of United We Dream Sofia Campos were ready to represent our generation at the commemorative events of the 50th Anniversary of the March on Washington. But at the last minute, they were cut from the speaking roster because of "time". 

Our generation's dreams have been deferred too long. We don't need a mic. The time is NOW.  Use #OurMarch along with #MarchOn and #MOW50. Tweet your responses. Let's have our own conversation.
