VIDEO DESCRIPTION:

"Dreams are for those who won't accept reality. So they dream about what is not there, but will make it happen," Sharpton said.

"We must give us our young people dreams again. You build jails, closed schools and break their dream and you wonder why they are wearing saggy pants."

The Reverend delivered one of the best speeches that day, maybe we should make a poll...
