名称:I Have a Dream | |
I am happy to join with you today | |
in what will go down in history as | |
the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation. | |
Five score years ago, a great American, | |
in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, | |
signed the Emancipation Proclamation. | |
This momentous decree came as a great | |
beacon light of hope to millions of Negro slaves | |
who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. | |
It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their captivity. | |
But one hundred years later, the Negro still is not free. | |
One hundred years later, | |
the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled | |
by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination. | |
One hundred years later, | |
the Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of | |
a vast ocean of material prosperity. | |
One hundred years later, | |
the Negro is still languished in the corners of American society | |
and finds himself an exile in his own land. | |
And so we've come here today to dramatize a shameful condition. | |
In a sense we've come to our nation's capital to cash a check. | |
When 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 heir. | |
This 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 concerned. | |
Instead of honoring this sacred obligation, | |
America has given the Negro people a bad check, | |
a check which has come back marked "insufficient funds." | |
But we refuse to believe that the bank of justice is bankrupt. | |
We refuse to believe that there are insufficient funds | |
in the great vaults of opportunity of this nation. And so, | |
we've come to cash this check, | |
a check that will give us upon demand the riches of freedom | |
and the security of justice. | |
We have also come to this hallowed spot to remind America of | |
the fierce urgency of Now. | |
This is no time to engage in the luxury of cooling off | |
or to take the tranquilizing drug of gradualism. | |
Now is the time to make real the promises of democracy. | |
Now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate valley of segregation | |
to the sunlit path of racial justice. | |
Now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands | |
of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood. | |
Now is the time to make justice a reality for all of God's children. | |
It would be fatal for the nation to overlook the urgency of the moment. | |
This sweltering summer of the Negro's legitimate discontent | |
will not pass until there is an invigorating autumn of freedom and equality. | |
Nineteen sixty-three is not an end, but a beginning. | |
And those 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 usual. | |
And there will be neither rest nor tranquility in America | |
until the Negro is granted his citizenship rights. | |
The whirlwinds of revolt will continue to shake the foundations | |
of our nation until the bright day of justice emerges. | |
But there is something that I must say to my people, | |
who stand on the warm threshold which leads into the palace of justice: | |
In the process of gaining our rightful place, | |
we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds. | |
Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom | |
by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred. | |
We must forever conduct our struggle on the high plane of dignity and discipline. | |
We must not allow our creative protest to degenerate into physical violence. | |
Again and again, | |
we must rise to the majestic heights of meeting physical force with soul force. | |
The marvelous new militancy | |
which has engulfed the Negro community must not lead us to a distrust | |
of all white people, for many of our white brothers, | |
as evidenced by their presence here today, | |
have come to realize that their destiny is tied up with our destiny. | |
And they have come to realize that their freedom is inextricably bound to our freedom. | |
We cannot walk alone. | |
And as we walk, we must make the pledge that we shall always march ahead. | |
We cannot turn back. | |
There are those who are asking the devotees of civil rights, | |
"When will you be satisfied?" | |
We can never be satisfied as long as the Negro is the | |
victim of the unspeakable horrors of police brutality. | |
We 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 cities. | |
We 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 vote. | |
No, no, we are not satisfied, | |
and we will not be satisfied until "justice rolls down like waters, | |
and righteousness like a mighty stream." | |
I am not unmindful that some of you have come here | |
out of great trials and tribulations. | |
Some of you have come fresh from narrow jail cells. | |
And some of you have come from areas where your quest -- | |
quest for freedom left you battered by the storms of persecution | |
and staggered by the winds of police brutality. | |
You have been the veterans of creative suffering. | |
Continue to work with the faith that unearned suffering is redemptive. | |
Go 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 changed. | |
Let us not wallow in the valley of despair, I say to you today, my friends. | |
And so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, | |
I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream. | |
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 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" -- 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 today! | |
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."? | |
This is our hope, and this is the faith that I go back to the South with. | |
With this faith, | |
we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope. | |
With this faith, | |
we will be able to transform the jangling discords of our nation into a | |
beautiful symphony of brotherhood. With 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 day. | |
And this will be the day | |
this will be the day when all of God's children | |
will be able to sing with new meaning: | |
My country 'tis of thee, sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing. | |
Land where my fathers died, land of the Pilgrim's pride, | |
From every mountainside, let freedom ring! | |
And if America is to be a great nation, this must become true. | |
And so let freedom ring from the prodigious hilltops of New Hampshire. | |
Let freedom ring from the mighty mountains of New York. | |
Let freedom ring from the heightening Alleghenies of Pennsylvania. | |
Let freedom ring from the snow-capped Rockies of Colorado. | |
Let freedom ring from the curvaceous slopes of California. | |
But not only that: | |
Let freedom ring from Stone Mountain of Georgia. | |
Let freedom ring from Lookout Mountain of Tennessee. | |
Let freedom ring from every hill and molehill of Mississippi. | |
From every mountainside, let freedom ring. | |
And when this happens, | |
when we allow freedom ring, | |
when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, | |
from every state and every city, | |
we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, | |
black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, | |
will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual: | |
Free at last! | |
free at last! | |
Thank God Almighty, we are free at last! | |
