demonstration for freedom in the history of our score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the Emancipation momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of Negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their one hundred years later, the Negro still is not hundred years later, the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of hundred years later, the Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material hundred years later, the Negro is still languished in the corners of American society and finds himself an exile in his own so we39。tis of thee, sweet land of liberty, of thee I where my fathers died, land of the Pilgrim39?！癮nd the glory of the Lord shall be revealed and all flesh shall see it together.”?This is our hope, and this is the faith that I go back to the South this faith, we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of this faith, we will be able to transform the jangling discords of our nation into a beautiful symphony of 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 this will be the daythis will be the day when all of God39。s would be fatal for the nation to overlook the urgency of the sweltering summer of the Negro39。s capital to cash a the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the “unalienable Rights” of “Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” It is obvious today that America has defaulted on this promissory note, insofar as her citizens of color are of honoring this sacred obligation, America has given the Negro people a bad check, a check which has e back marked “insufficient funds.”But we refuse to believe that the bank of justice is refuse to believe that there are insufficient funds in the great vaults of opportunity of this so, we39。ve e here today to dramatize a shameful a sense we39。 We can never be satisfied as long as the Negro is the victim of the unspeakable horrors of police can never be satisfied as long as our bodies, heavy with the fatigue of travel, cannot gain lodging in the motels of the highways and the hotels of the cannot be satisfied as long as a Negro in Mississippi cannot vote and a Negro in New York believes he has nothing for which to , no, we are not satisfied and we will not be satisfied until justice rolls down like waters and righteousness like a mighty am not unmindful that some of you have e here out of great trials and of you have e fresh from narrow jail of you have e from areas where your quest for freedom left you battered by the storms of persecutions and staggered by the winds of police have been the veterans of creative to work with the faith that unearned suffering is back to Mississippi, go back to Alabama, go back to South Carolina, go back to Georgia, go back to Louisiana, go back to the slums and ghettos of our northern cities, knowing that somehow this situation can and will be us not wallow in the valley of despair, I say to you today, my so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a is a dream deeply rooted in the American 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 selfevident that all men are created 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 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 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 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。s legitimate discontent will not pass until there is an invigorating autumn of freedom and sixtythree is not an end but a who hope that the Negro needed to blow off steam and will now be content will have a rude awakening if the nation returns to business as will be neither rest nor tranquility in America until the Negro is granted his citizenship whirlwinds of revolt will continue to shake the foundations of our nation until the bright day of justice there is something that I must say to my people who stand on the warm threshold which leads into the palace of the process of gaining our rightful place we must not be guilty of wrongful us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and must ever conduct our struggle on the high plane of dignity and must not allow our creative protest to degenerate into physical and again we must rise to the majestic heights of meeting physical force with
