Happy Birthday Dr. King

I Have a Dream speech is one of the most famous speeches heard worldwide and is one of the most-used quotes.

When Martin Luther King addressed the nation with his I Have a Dream, his main goal was to see a united nation become one.

Which meant seeing no color or ethnic background.

I know times like today when people are losing their lives over nothing; it’s challenging to see this. I have a dream speech that has become a reality.

It’s challenging to dream about anything when we are busy living in a survival mood to be able to dream about what our future might be.

I will say something, but before anything comes out of my mouth, I will say that I will not be unapologetic.

Everyone says this death brought a lot of positive changes to a nation, and that might be true in the sense that we, as colored people, can integrate other races that might not be our own.

On the other hand, things we get looked down upon just because we look or speak another language that is not American. So even though he put his own life on the line, we could be looked at as one nation. I am sad to say that we are still being racially profiled so many years after his untimely passing.

People like:

Breonna Taylor was on her own and killed because of a mistake in the address.

Trayvon Martin was Murder for being a black Young man in the wrong neighborhood and wearing a hoodie.

George Floyd George Perry Floyd Jr. (October 14, 1973 – May 25, 2020) was an African American man who was murdered by a white police officer in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

I’m only saying a few names because these human beings were racially profiled no matter what the media made it out to be.

Dr. King believes in violence, so that is also a sad thing to see people lose their lives when Dr. King sacrificed his own life so we could be that nation of I Have a Dream speech he spoke so highly of.
