SIOUX CITY, Iowa (KTIV) -

Briar Cliff University students were spreading Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s message of equality, today. College kids read books and recited the famous "I Have a Dream" speech to Siouxland elementary students.

At Leeds Elementary, Briar Cliff senior Kevin Canady read the children's book Happy Birthday Martin Luther King. He says both he and the students got something out of it.

"Small things, just reading to them. Things that will brighten their day, may brighten yours as well," said Canady.

King was born January 15th, 1929 in Atlanta, Georgia. He was killed by an assassin's bullet on April 4th of 1968.
