Martin Luther King and Peace .

Martin Luther King Jr. was born at Atlanta in United States as a son of Michael Luther King who was a pastor of baptism in Jan 15th, 1929. And he was dead at Memphis by shot when he was on the way to support the strike of Afro-American dustmen in April, 1968. He was one of the pastors who led the movement for human rights of Afro-American as the baptist pastor, activist for human rights of Afro-American Liberation. He awarded Nobel Prize of Peace in 1964. He said this.
"I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed : "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal. I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia, the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood. I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a state sweltering with the heat of injustice, weltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice. 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. 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."
We also have dream. Do you want to know what it is? As you saw the speech, no injustice and oppression, not judged by the color of skin, and our descendants hold hands each other without race and nationality discrimination. Let's move in step by step. Then, we can make dream come true.
