The Lincoln Memorial, dedicated in 1922, honors President Abraham Lincoln, who led the United States during the Civil War and worked to end slavery. Designed by architect Henry Bacon, the memorial features a large seated statue of Lincoln and inscriptions of two of his most Famous Speeches, emphasizing themes of unity and equality. The site has also become a significant location for civil rights activism, most notably during Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech in 1963, symbolizing the ongoing struggle for justice and equality in America.
