	Simply doesn't get more powerful than this. Amazing speech which changed the world for the better, thank you for reminding us, inspirational.

	This is absolutely amazing. The world may never again see an orator and writer with the passion, eloquence and simplicity of speech that Dr. King held. As an English major who earned my degree with an emphasis on Literature of the Civil Rights era this is a welcomed reminder of all the wonderful African-American artists who helped mold America into what it is today. Great strides had been made leading to this speech, and even greater strides since it was given, however much work still lies ahead in fully realizing the Reverend’s vision. Happy birthday, Dr. King.

	I just got back from our town's annual MLK breakfast. This year I had the privilege of being on a small panel that commented on a video about the violence directed at people during the Civil Rights movement. It was a powerful and moving discussion and a stark reminder that we've come a long way and yet, have a long way to go. Thank you, Dr. King, for setting in the right direction.

	Please complete the speech. "I have a dream that one day, down in Alabama, with its vicious racists, with its governor having his lips dripping with the words of interposition and nullification; one day right there in Alabama, little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls as sisters and brothers. I have a dream today. I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made straight, and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together."

	I wonder what Mr. King would think of things today?

	Amen.

	My 4 year old was given two eggs in school- one brown and one white. They were asked to notice differences and similarities- cracked them open and of course they were the same inside. Such a simply concept that 4 year olds can understand...why can't everyone else?

	Ralph Wiggum: Martin Luther King had a dream. Dreams are where Elmo and Toy Story had a party and I was invited. Yay! My turn is over! Principal Skinner: One of your best, Ralphie.

	@Interro and juviejay- I would have loved to put the entire rest of the speech in but the maximum number of lines in a Sporcle quiz is 300, so there wasn't room. I also tried to find a way to have "Free at last, free at last, thank God Almighty we're free at last" appear at the bottom when the quiz was over but there isn't a way to trigger something only when the quiz ends. I tried to find the most memorable portion to pull out.

	Dr. King was and continues to be a true inspiration of how good can conquer evil. "Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that."

	My church (the Episcopal Church) recognizes him as a saint and calls him a prophet in the prayer designated for his feast day (which, following ancient church tradition, is the day he died, April 4; but it is often transferred to the secular holiday). It must be remembered too that he was expanding his vision even further at the time of his death, when he was looking at global oppression and worker oppression. "The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice." Holy Martin, pray for us!

	Such a powerful speech. One of the most influential people to ever walk the face of the earth.

	Meltha:	Jan 17th, 2012 at 02:47 GMT	12 points
	It's stunning to think he'd be only 83 today. The world has changed a lot in some ways. We could still use him today. We got robbed of a great man.
