MLK Jr.

The following are the last lines of the famous "I Have a Dream" speech given by Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. in August of 1963. We are still peacefully striving for this vision of freedom and equality in our nation and in our world:

...And when this happens, and when we allow freedom to ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up the day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, 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!
