Children of the Revolution...a collective of dashing nomads, Aiesecers, travelers and adventurers. Monday, January 17, 2005 MLK "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 slaveowners will be able to sit down together at a table of brotherhood. I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a desert state, sweltering with the heat of injustice and oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice. I have a dream that my four 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 today. " (Martin Luther King) The race relations in the US is pretty much still a work in progress and so is the rest of the world. It is heartbreaking to see the ingenuity that people come up with to divide societies based on natural characteristic of human race, be it the color of your skin or your ethnicity. Until we are able to see beyond the characteristics brought by our gene pool and pay attention to the character to our fellow man, there is little hope for peace. 3 comments: - Mel T. said... It is heartbreaking to see division in societies based on anything. Hotel Rwanda. Love your fellow Republican neighbor. Embrace thy ignorant colleagues. Have compassion for your enemies. - Drake said... really quickly 2 quotes from MLK Jr. that I enjoy and feel relate to a) some postings about AIESEC's role in such things as the aftermath of the Tsunami and b)the ramifications of having such high levels of poverty throughout the world...and ultimately why the 'War on Terra' won't be won until this poverty has been alleviated: a)"Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter." b)"There is nothing more dangerous than to build a society, with a large segment of people in that society, who feel that they have no stake in it; who feel that they have nothing to lose. People who have a stake in their society, protect that society, but when they don’t have it, they unconsciously want to destroy it�. - Tom Gara said... Instpundit posted something interesting: "In September 1963, the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. delivered the eulogy for three of the four girls killed in the bombing of the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Ala. What King could not know was that, within earshot of the blast, just blocks away at her father's church, was another little black girl, a friend of the youngest victim, who 42 years later would be on the verge of becoming America's foremost diplomat. "This year, the Martin Luther King holiday, marking what would have been his 76th birthday, falls on Jan. 17. The next day, the Senate Foreign Relations Committee opens hearings on the nomination of Condoleezza Rice to succeed Colin Powell as secretary of state. It's a stunning juxtaposition that offers those who knew King, lived that history and ponder his legacy an opportunity to wonder: How might they explain Rice's rise to him? And what would he make of it? She is, after all, the literal fulfillment of King's dream -- a woman judged not by the color of her skin but by the content of her character. She is also living proof that King's eulogy was prescient, that "these children -- unoffending, innocent and beautiful -- did not die in vain."

Danas Vam darujemo prijevod govora na hrvatski u cijelosti: Dragi moji sunarodnjaci: Stojim danas pred Vama ponizan zbog zadatka koji je pred nama, zahvalan na povjerenju kojeg ste mi ukazali te svjestan žrtava koje su podnijeli naši preci. Zahvaljujem predsjedniku Bushu što je služio našem narodu te na velikodušnosti i suradnji koju je iskazao tijekom razdoblja smjene vlasti. Do sada su četrdeset i četiri Amerikanca položila predsjedničku prisegu. Riječi su izgovarane tijekom rastućih plima blagostanja i tihih voda mira. No ponekad se prisega izgovarala usred nakupljenih oblaka i oluja. U takvim je trenucima Amerika kročila dalje, ne zbog stručnosti i vizija vladajućih, već zbog toga što smo Mi, Narod, ostajali vjerni idealima naših predaka i odani našim temeljnim načelima. Tako je to bilo nekada. Tako mora postupiti i ova generacija Amerikanaca. Sasvim je jasno da se trenutno nalazimo usred krize. Naša je zemlja u ratu s...

Kennedy gledao Martina Luthera Kinga dok je izlagao svoj famozni govor “Imam san” rekao je “On je dobar. On je vraški dobar.” Vjerujem da to isto, upravo sada gore na nebu govore Kennedy i King.
