Fifty years ago this week, the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his famous “I have a dream” speech. But in coverage of events celebrating its anniversary, the entirety of King’s address will rarely be reprinted, if at all, nor will viewers see footage of his speech delivered in full.

I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia the sons of former slaves and will bash in the heads of the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood. and get no approbation from the President or their community.
I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a state sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice EBT cards and bastard babies.
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 and not by the content of their character.
I have a dream today.
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. and beat them to a pulp on school buses.
I have a dream today.
I have a dream that one day every valley politician shall be exalted, and every hill and mountain shall be made low exactly the same height by law, the rough places will be made plain like Detroit, and the crooked places will be made straight like Chicago, and the glory of the Lord The One shall be revealed and all flesh shall see it together.

Why are so many Sons Of Barack's violent thugs?
Let me guess,(I havent read the article yet) it’s
because all rights to the speech are held by the
King family...
The King family are clever business people.
To bad they are letting their father’s perceived image to be tarnished.
Yes, I said perceived, as I was alive when King hit his stride, I wont go further here.
The re-write by Obama and company.
You’re correct.
And then there’s this from the article...
“A few years ago, the [King] estate received more than $700,000 from the nonprofit foundation that created and built the monument to King on the Mall in order to use his words and image.”
A real sticky point for the race baiters in charge of keeping all their Negroes on the plantation.

In case you didn’t know, Martin Luther King was a Republican. If Obama knew his American history, he would try to ignore today’s anniversary.
>>“A few years ago, the [King] estate received more than $700,000 from the nonprofit foundation that created and built the monument to King on the Mall in order to use his words and image.”<<
have you seen that monstrosity? It looks like Chairman Mao. LOL.
It is the only monument in all DC where holder’s people congregate.
Yes, I did know.
As I said perceived.
Dear Uncle. You need to change your post. Approbation means approval. And they do get that.
Crap. I’ve been using that word wrong all my life. Thanks for the correction!
I pride myself on my vocabulary, and I really blew that one!
The narcissist in chief will change the title of his own speech to “I Am a Dream.
King’s family are a bunch of grifters, aren’t they?
