Quoting:Let us not wallow in the valley of despair, I
say to you today, my friends.
And so even though we face the difficulties
of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream.
It is a dream deeply rooted in the American
dream.
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 slave owners will be able
to sit down together at the table of
brotherhood.
I have a dream that one day even the state
of Mississippi, a state sweltering with the
heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of
oppression, will be transformed into an
oasis of freedom and justice.
I have a dream that my four little 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!
I have a dream that one day, down in
Alabama, with its vicious racists, with its
governor having his lips dripping with the
words of "interposition" and "nullification"
-- one day right there in Alabama little black
boys and black girls will be able to join
hands with little white boys and white girls
as sisters and brothers.
I have a dream today!
I have a dream that one day every valley shall
be exalted, and every hill and mountain shall
be made low, the rough places will be made
plain, and the crooked places will be made
straight; "and the glory of the Lord shall be
revealed and all flesh shall see it together."2
This is our hope, and this is the faith that I
go back to the South with.
With this faith, we will be able to hew out of
the mountain of despair a stone of hope.
With this faith, we will be able to transform
the jangling discords of our nation into a
beautiful symphony of brotherhood. With
this faith, we will be able to work together,
to pray together, to struggle together, to go
to jail together, to stand up for freedom
together, knowing that we will be free one
day.
And this will be the day -- this will be the day
when all of God's children will be able to
sing with new meaning:
My country 'tis of thee, sweet land of
liberty, of thee I sing.
Land where my fathers died, land of the
Pilgrim's pride,
From every mountainside, let freedom
ring!
And if America is to be a great nation, this
must become true.
And so let freedom ring from the prodigious
hilltops of New Hampshire.
Let freedom ring from the mighty
mountains of New York.
Let freedom ring from the heightening
Alleghenies of Pennsylvania.
Let freedom ring from the snow-capped
Rockies of Colorado.
Let freedom ring from the curvaceous
slopes of California.
But not only that:
Let freedom ring from Stone Mountain
of Georgia.
Let freedom ring from Lookout
Mountain of Tennessee.
Let freedom ring from every hill and
molehill of Mississippi.
From every mountainside, let freedom
ring.
And when this happens, and when we allow
freedom ring, when we let it ring from every
village and every hamlet, from every state
and every city, we will be able to speed up
that day when all of God's children, black
men and white men, Jews and Gentiles,
Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join
hands and sing in the words of the old
Negro spiritual:
Free at last! Free at last!
Thank God Almighty, we are free at last!
