 for the Dream is your opportunity to invite someone from a different race, 
 religion or cultural background to walk and talk with you as we all march. 
 We affectionately call these conversations, "Having a King-Talk."\n\nThey 
 are conversations that bring more light than heat, and focus on strategies 
 to make America and the world more equitable and just place to live. It 
 starts with three words, "Walk with me."\n\n\nWhat if I'm unable to walk 
 the march or get tired during the march can I still participate in the 
 march?\n\nYes, Regional Transit provides a courtesy bus for those who have 
 trouble walking any part of the march!  If you start walking in the march 
 and are unable to continue walking to the convention center, you can flag 
 an RT bus to stop for you.\n\n\nCourse Route\n\nMarchers will travel south
