Martin Luther King's Iconic speech

Martinlutherking

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 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. — Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. 1963

A fine day to watch again this extraordinary 10-minute speech.
