    In spite of the difficulties of the moment, 
    I still have a dream. I have a dream that one day 
    this nation will rise up and live out the true 
    meaning of its belief that all men are created 
    equal. 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 that one day in the state of 
    Alabama little black boys and little 
    black girls will be able to join hands 
    with little white boys and little white 
    girls and walk together as sisters and 
    brothers.
    This is our hope. This is the faith 
    with which I return to the South. With 
    this faith we will be able to stand up 
    for freedom together, knowing that we 
    will be free one day. This will be the day when all of God’s children will be able to 
    sing with new meaning, “My country, ‘tis of thee, sweet land of liberty, of thee I 
    sing. Land where my fathers died. Land of the pilgrim’s pride. From every 
    mountainside, let freedom ring.” 
    And if America is to be a great nation, this must become true. So let freedom 
    ring from the hilltops of New Hampshire. Let freedom ring from the mighty 
    mountains of New York. Let freedom ring from the peaks of California! 
    Let freedom ring from every hill in Mississippi. When we let freedom ring, we 
    will be able to speed up that day when all of God’s children will be able to join 
    hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual, “Free at last! Free at last! 
    Thank God Almighty, we are free at last!”
