黑人民權領袖馬丁路德金

美國獨立後，國內一直存在種族歧視問題，黑人民權領袖馬丁路德金(Martin Luther King Jr.1929－68)以非暴力手法，爭取種族平等，成為諾貝爾和平獎得主。

    他多次發動大型民權運動，尤以一九六三年八月二十八日年那次最著名，他在二十萬人前宣 讀《我有一個夢》的演說，要求實現人人平等的理想，至今仍為人稱頌。 一九六八年，他於田納西州遇刺身亡。

馬丁路德金《我有一個夢》的演說~~四十七年後, 美國出現了第一位黑人總統。這是當年大家難以想像的。

《我有一個夢》也成為名句。

Westlife - I Have a Dream

I Have A Dream

I have a dream, a song to sing
To help me cope with anything
If you see the wonder of a fairy tale
You can take the future even if you fail
I believe in angels
Something good in everything I see
I believe in angels
When I know the time is right for me
I'll cross the stream - I have a dream
I have a dream, a fantasy
To help me through reality
And my destination makes it worth the while
Pushing through the darkness still another mile
I believe in angels
Something good in everything I see
I believe in angels
When I know the time is right for me
I'll cross the stream - I have a dream
I'll cross the stream - I have a dream
I have a dream, a song to sing
To help me cope with anything
If you see the wonder of a fairy tale
You can take the future even if you fail
I believe in angels
Something good in everything I see
I believe in angels
When I know the time is right for me
I'll cross the stream - I have a dream
I'll cross the stream - I have a dream
