How can a speech given more than five decades ago still move people to tears. Some words live forever and people who never heard the original speech know it and can quote from it and their hearts can be stirred by it years after the speechmaker has been buried. "I have a dream." Martin Luther King said. "That one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of it's creed: We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal...that sons of former of salves and the sons of former salve owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood...the heat of oppression will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice...they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character...little black boys and little black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and little white girls as sister and brothers...Let freedom ring...Free at last, free at last. Thank God almighty we are free at last.
We have come a long way toward that dream. Let's not let anyone try to crush it. Let the dream live on.
