CNN has reached agreement with the estate of Martin Luther King, Jr. that will allow the network to replay King's "I Have a Dream" speech in its entirety today at tomorrow at 12 Noon ET.
The airing of the speech is part of CNN's MLK Day programming. Anchors Soledad O'Brien and Don Lemon lead coverage along with CNN political analyst Roland Martin from the Mall, not far from where King gave that speech on Aug. 28, 1963.
The 16 minute speech is currently available on YouTube

Dear Ms. O'Brien,
Thanks for the comprehensive wonderful coverage you are providing. Seeing the speech once again was inspiring. Thank you for that.
I'm posting this comment today because I've been hearing you and others ask your guests if the inauguration is "the end game" in regard to the civil rights struggle. I am hoping you might accept my humble thoughts. So, here goes:
The celebration going on in Washington that you are sharing with us is testament to this being just the beginning. There is no end game rather, the continuation of a worthy journey.
Thank you!
Soledad O'Brien Washington, D. C. does not have a suburb. No matter how you would like to define it or redefine the word 'suburb', Washington, D. C. does not fit the bill. In addition, Maryland and Virginia are states surrounding Washington, D. C. Therefore, all of the cities that lies outside of D. C. are not Washington's cities. For Washington, D. C. is a city alone.
