Yesterday, two thousand people got together in Washington to listen to Martin Luther King Jr’s speech. This heart warming speech reached every american given that it was also televised. He spoke about the racial discrimination that exists in the country, the liberty that he wants for people and the way he wants the american country to live like.
King’s speech referred to the situation of the american society and he criticized it in such a way that every african american felt identified with his words. One of the main purposes was to demonstrate the situation that America was going through. The racial inequality in terms of economics, civil rights and freedom itself. The goals of the march were a higher minimum wage, support for the antidiscrimination legislation and creating conscience about the african american’s situation. These two last goals were the most important and they a common purpose, which is racial equality. As we can appreciate in this quote that King said,
“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 ”
he wants this society to appreciate the different ethnies and to live in brotherhood and freedom.
By the other hand, the response of the audience to King’’s speech was tremendous. Everyone that was in the march felt identified with his words. These words that carried freedom and justice and that yesterday were listened by every american, given that it was televised.
