Some people say that the dream of Martin Luther King is one of the most inspiring speeches ever made in history. Personally I agree. Years after his death the dream has come true. Children of all the black slave, the ones that use to work hard day after day from the crack of dawn till the last bit of sunshine dissapears behind the mountains. To anyone who listens to that speech it brings hope. Hope that we can make a change in the world with the tinniest of our actions. One speech, one speech. From one man. He did not have all the money in the world, all he had was hope, and that hope, that speech inspired thousands . . .maybe even millions. . .to make a change. That change makes us what we are today.
But the question in this is :
what happens to the generation now?
Kids now do not seem to care about their self respect. Something that our greatest leaders such as Martin Luther King Jr. risked their life for.
what happens now?
I'm a 9th grade student and I would get laughed at at my school if I ever mentioned even listening to this speech. What is that all about?
This speech is one of the things that gave me the ability to come to the United States as a free person. Not as as the property of a white person.
