"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."

- Martin Luther King, August 28th, 1963.




On August 28th, 1963, Martin Luther King Jr. made a speech which sent messages to many different races. The purpose of his speech was to convince and persuade people that one should not be judged by his background, race, or the color of his skin. Since racism was an incredibly big problem, as African-American people were treated with disrespect, this is a message that will be followed through time and culture through now, and the many years to come. The inspirational messages given from the courageous and brave people who defended their race will drive people to follow this message. Martin Luther King was one of those courageous and brave people. He made a difference in this world.
