Lincoln Memorial, Washington D.C., Martin Luther King spoke out to over 200,000 civil rights activists and supporters about the dream of that glorious day where they could all be equal in this world. Where racism and inequality was a thing of the past. Despite the fact that things were supossed to be entirely equal between the classes of race, still standing a century after the civil war the black population was still being oppressed and King was determined to have their voices heard. He prays for the Negros to stand up and join in with the white man to bring about a happier future. Two groups living peacefully side by side. No more segregation, no more hatred, where the color of skin was a cover of some discarded book. He closes his speech brilliantly, with the point of the one thing we all want the most. Freedom.
