The Obamas attend The Dr. Martin Luther King Memorial Dedication.
The Obama Family was spotted yesterday in DC as the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. National Memorial was officially unveiled.  A dedication ceremony was held at the Washington Mall and attended by the likes of Rev. Al Sharpton; the Rev. Joseph Lowery; actresses Cicely Tyson, Diahann Carroll and Aretha Franklin.
President Obama delivered a speech and said that though we’ve come a long way since Dr. King’s time, there is still much needed work to be done with issues such as bullying and social and economic justice while the country continues to face challenges in education, war, and tragedy.
