I have a Dream Speech 
Martin Luther King
The greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation. 
August 28, 1963
Where it all Began 
“Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we 
01 
stand today, signed the Emancipation Proclamation.”
One hundred years later, the Negro is still languishing in the corners of Ameri 
can society and finds himself an exile in his own land.
“…unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.”
“Instead of honoring this sacred obligation, America has given the 
Negro people a bad check, a check which has come back marked 
"insufficient funds."
Nineteen sixty-three is not an end, but a beginning. 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.
We can never be satisfied as long as our children are stripped of their selfho 
od and robbed of their dignity by signs stating "For Whites Only".
Detail No. 3 
“I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out th 
e true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evide 
nt: that all men are created equal.”
“There are those who are asking the devotees of civil rights, "When will ou be satisfied?" We can never be satisfied as long as the Negro is the ictim of the unspeakable horrors of police brutality.”
Supporting Detail No. 2 
Let us not wallow in the valley of despair.”
Conclusion
"Free at last! free at last! thank God Almighty, we are free 
at last!"
