A dream . . .
He had a dream ... a dream that one
day our country’s promise of
equality for all people ... regardless
of race or religion ... would become
a reality. He gave his life for his
dream, which he promoted through
non-violent resistance to
segregation. His work for justice
was recognized in 1964, when he
was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize
Since his death, his dream goes
on, as people in all walks of life
strive toward his goal of equal
freedom and opportunity for all.
Thank you, Martin Luther King, for
making us al, aware that your
dream is an exalted one which
deserves to come true.
o f equal opportunity fo r all.
M artin Luther King saw a better future for all races
through equal opportunities.
