Enjoy a Speech,I Have a Dream I am happy to join with you today in what will go down in history as the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation. Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the Emancipation Proclamation(解放黑奴宣言). This momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of Negro slaves, who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice.

But we refuse to believe that the bank of justice is bankrupt. We refuse to believe that there are insufficient funds in the great vaults of opportunity of this nation. So we have come to cash this check a c
