“I Have a Dream” is an important speech of Martin Luther King Junior, in 1963. In this speech king Jr. describes the pitiable condition in America. He wants to see his country free from racial distinction between the whites and the blacks.
Through his speech king Jr. raises his voice for equality and right for Nigroes in America. He reminds them that slavery in America has been abolished, but Negroes are not free. They live in Ghettos. They find no justice. There is justice in America, but Nigroes are deprived of it. America is a rich country, but Nigroes live in poverty. They are treated as slave in their own country. Social and economic justice is a dream for them. So, King Jr. asks them to continue their struggle for justice and right. He advises him to keep their fight non-violent and disciplined. He asks his people to maintain good conduct and remain free from hatred and enemity.
King Jr. tell that he has a dream. He has a dream of seeing Alabama as developed state. He has a dream that one day white boys and girls join hands with black boys and girls. He dreams that the sons of former slaves and the sons of farmer slave owners will sit down together as brothers. He has a dream that all the people of America will walk together.
King Jr. is sure that inspite of difficulties and frustration, the situation will change. He hopes that one day will come when injustice and discrimination will end. One day there would be the atmosphare of brotherhood in America and the rough life of the Nigroes would be made smooth.
Thus, through this speech King Jr. advises the Nigroes of America to fight continuously for their rights. He assures the blacks that one day will come when they will be given their rights and freedom.
