00:00So even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream.
00:17It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream.
00:21I have a dream that one day, this nation will rise up, live out the true meaning of its creed.
00:34We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal.
00:40I have a dream that one day on the Red Hills of Georgia, the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.
00:59I have a dream that one day, even the state of Mississippi, a state sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.
01:20Because 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.
01:35I have a dream today, 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 that 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.
02:05Free at last, free at last, thank God almighty, we are free at last.
