I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: “We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal.”
I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slaveowners will be able to sit down together at a table of brotherhood.
I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a desert state, sweltering with the heat of injustice and oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.
I have a dream that my four children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.
I have a dream today.
Happy birthday, Martin. Happy Martin Luther King Day, Bob!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful human being he was. His message of love and tolerance is as important today as ever before. Happy Martin Luther King Day to all.
ReplyDeleteBest speech I ever heard! Followed by JFK's inaugural speech. President Obama is a gifted speaker, too.
ReplyDeleteBest. Speech. Ever.
ReplyDeleteHe was a beacon in a very dark time. We need someone like him now, to lead us out of this quagmire we seem to find ourselves in presently.
He is my hero. Equality for EVERYONE!
