50th year anniversary about "I have a dream"


Amazingly, it has been 50 years since the last time Martin Luther King Jr. said the famous speech “I have a dream.” This short article that I have read, says that did we really listened to his speech today and how our world has changed over the years. During that time period, when Martin Luther King said that speech, there was a lot of emotion, sadness about our nation and to bring everyone together as one. Also the speech said, there should not be any racism, hatred, and everyone respecting each other. When he gave that speech, it brought attention to many people and everyone saw something different in our nation. African Americans were treated unfairly, poorly and no one should be treated like that. Their regular human beings just like us and people should never treat them any differently because of their skin color.

             In my opinion, I believe that his speech has no effect on our society today as it did before. People are still biased and racist today, however I think it wasn’t as bad as it was before. Racism means that people hate one certain race or culture for their own certain reason and it’s absolutely mean. Everyone should be treated equal and it ties into social justice because social justice should be brought up more around our world. It will bring people’s attention and it could get spread around, which would be fantastic. We should never forget Martin Luther King for his passion to bring our nation together. Martin Luther King Day is a great holiday to remember him as a great leader and speaker. As for digital media, it can get around the world to remember Martin Luther King. Digital media can get very social and if people see that is the 50th anniversary of "I have a dream speech," it can make people tell everyone out there.
