I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi a state of sweltering heat of oppression, will be transformed into, an oasis of freedom and justice.',:f; 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. have a dream today. I have a dream that every day every valley shall be engulfed, every hill shall be exalted and every mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plains, and the crooked places will be made straight, and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed and all flesh see it together. This is our hope. This is the faith that I will go back to the South with: With this faith we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope. With this faith, we will be able to work together, to pray together, to struggle together, to go to jail together, to climb up for freedom together, knowing that we will be free one day. This will be the day when all of God's children will be able to sing with new meaning "My country'tis of thee, Sweet land of liberty, Of thee I sing. Land where my father died, Land of the Pilgrim's pride, From every mountainside, Let freedom ring." And if America is to be a great nation, this must become true.... ' So, let freedom ring from the. mighty mountains of New York. Letfreedom ring from the snow-capped Rockies of Colorado. Let freedom ring from the curvaceous slopes of California. But not onlythat, let freedom ring from the Stone Mountain of Georgia. Let freedom'' ring from Lookout Mountain of Tennessee. Let freedom ring from every hill and mole hill of Mississippi and every mountainside. When we let freedom ring, when we let it ring from every tenement 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.
