I feel discriminated against, but it does not make me angry. It merely astonishes
me. How can any deny themselves the pleasure of my company? It's beyond me. "

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 slaveowners will be able to sit down together at
a table of brotherhood. I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi,
a desert state, sweltering with the heat of injustice and oppression, will be
transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice. I have a dream that my four
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.

Martin Luther King, Jr
