Let freedom ring...

"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....

 

This will be the day when all of God's children will be able to sing with a 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....From every mountainside, let freedom ring..." - Martin Luther King, Jr. (1929-1968)

 

Excerpted from "I have a dream" speech - delivered 28 August, 1963
