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 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 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."

I think it's amazing that today, we actually see black and white people go school together, eat together, work together, together, play video games together, cook together; it is almost as nothing has happened in the past. It is true, however, that we might face with racists people from time to time today; but they aren't as strong as many years ago. Respect to MLK!

It is pretty crazy to even think that there was a time where things as bad as MLK describes in his speech. I know if my lifetime things were never like that, and they just continue to get better. Just shows how far we've come.
 
Quite a few times, I have had experienced having someone hate/dislike me simply because I am black. I thought to myself "Wow, this is actually happening to me." Amazing. They're actually dead serious about disliking me because of color skins. They do have a lot of nerves on themselves, though. I'm not mad or anything. Just disappointed and sad about that.
