    ne hundred years ago, Lincoln signed a law that gave freedom to all 
    slaves in the United States. But one hundred years later, we must face 
    the tragic fact that the Negro is still not free. One hundred years later, 
    the life of the Negro is still sadly chained by segregation and discrimination. 
    When the creators of our vast republic wrote the magnificent words of the 
    Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they were making a promise 
    to all of their children. This promise was that all men would be guaranteed the 
    rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. It is clear today that America 
    has not kept her promise as far as her citizens of color are concerned
    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 quiet and happy will have a 
    rude awakening if the nation returns to doing things the way they have always 
    been done.
    There will be neither rest nor peace in America until the Negro is given his 
    rights as a citizen. But there is something that I must say to my people who 
    stand waiting at the doorway into the palace of justice. In the process of getting 
    our rights, we must not be guilty of wrongful acts. We must not allow our protest 
    to fall into violence. Again and again we must rise to the challenge of meeting 
    physical force with soul force. Go back to Mississippi. Go back to Alabama. Go 
    back to Georgia. Go back to the ghettos of our northern cities, knowing that 
    somehow this situation can and will be changed.
