"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."
these word were spoken by the man who believed that every dream CAN be archived.
this was a very important quote by rev. Martin Luther King JR. because this is
what told others that its the inside that counts and that appearance is nothing to a feeling. That people judging blacks as bad people shouldn't because they could be friends with them and let them have the rights they deserved since the start of all the problems they started to have in the country.these words cough my attention because i at an early age learned that people are just people no mater their color. That they might be different,they might be colored, but their still regular people like us.
Black people run play and live just like us but they will always be our equals.
What happens to a dream deferred?
Does it dry up like a raisin in the sun?
Or fester like a sore--
And then run?
Does it stink like rotten meat?
Or crust and sugar over-- like a syrupy sweet?
Maybe it just sags
like a heavy load.
Or does it explode?
A Dream Deferred

Waht happens to a dream deferred?
Dose it burn like a cut?
Or swell like a bump on you're head--
And then think
Dose it shrieke like a halting car?
Or fly to
heven-- like an angel
mabey it just stings
like a blistering sun.
Or dose it obliterate everything known?
Or does it explode?

good poem and that poem made alot of sense, you are right about the blacks being equal and deserving to do the same things that others do, good statement
Well yes Alexis almost any dream can come true if we put our part to make it come true. However I don't believe the dream of Martin Luther King jr. came true. We still have people thinking African Americans are bad people, some school are still segregated having the Africans on one side another race on the other and when it comes time to get a job they look at them differently than a white person and are treatly differently than other races in some parts. I only hope one day when they see the truth about EVERYONE being equal they would see that they aren't such bad people and that day MArtin Luther King Jr.'s dream would have come true.
Alexis its true what you said people are just people.No matter there color.I mean why is there a lot of racism.good explanation.Dont look at peoples colors but at there character.
hey i have that same quote! i agree with you, to me skin color doesn't matter an dit shouldn't but not all people are like that. I like ur poem it made me really think about things it seems like you really spend time on it, good job. Comment mine plz!
Your poem is cool! the quote is the same one I choose. I also believe that people should jujde by the actions of their heart and not by the color of their skin!!! People should know that everybody is equal. Cool Stuff!
