(Sacramento) -- Assemblymember Reggie Jones-Sawyer (D-South Los Angeles) and the rest of the California State Assembly held a special ceremony to mark the 50th anniversary of Doctor Martin Luther King Junior's "I Have A Dream" speech. During the ceremony, Assemblymember Jones-Sawyer told his colleagues about his father who attended the March on Washington in 1963 but now has Alzheimer's, "He can't remember a lot of things but there's one thing he consistently remembers...he remembers the March on Washington."
