Milwaukee honors the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Staff Photos
On Monday, January 19, 2015, at 1:00 p.m., St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church, located at 1927 N. 4th St., hosted the annual Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Justice Program. The program focused on the last year of Dr. King’s life when he strongly confronted poverty, economic injustice and the Vietnam War. Featured were readings of quotes from Dr. King during the difficult last year of his life when many supporters and colleagues questioned his public opposition to the war. Preceding the program attendees marched down Martin Luther King, Jr. Drive to the King Statue, just north of Walnut St., where there was an open microphone at which participants were encouraged to reflect on Dr. King's work.

On Sunday, January 18, 2015, the 31st Annual Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Birthday Celebration was held downtown at the Marcus Center in Uihlein Hall. The event focuses on keeping the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., alive by highlighting the youth in our community who every year interpret Dr. King's words through an art, speech and writing contest. The theme for this year's program was "We Have A Great Deal of Positive Work To Do," which was taken from A Testament of Hope, The Essential Writings and Speeches of Martin Luther King, Jr. Young people who are involved in the performing arts were also highlighted as they saluted Dr. King's legacy through music, dance and song. The event was free and open to the public. Pictured at the event are (top photo) Fox 6's Cassandra McShepard, who hosted the event and sang the national anthem and the black national anthem as the Milwaukee County Sheriff ’s Department Honor Guard presented the colors. Also pictured is Terynn Erby-Walker who gave an impassioned speech at the event (inset).

Eleven Milwaukee area high school seniors visited the WISNTV Channel 12 studios on Monday, January 19, 2015 to tape promotional features about themselves that will air exclusively on Channel 12 in the month of February during the weeks leading up to the 30th Annual Black Excellence Awards on Friday, February 27, 2015. That evening, the students, all members of their schools’ honor rolls, will be introduced to the community at the awards banquet and receive a scholarship to assist them with their college expenses. They will join the ranks of some 125 college-bound students who have been awarded the Louvenia Johnson Scholarship since its inception in 1985. The scholar-
ship is named in honor of the late Louvenia Johnson, founder of The Milwaukee Times Weekly Newspaper who also started the scholarship fund. The Milwaukee Times is proud to partner with WISN-TV Channel 12 in presenting this annual program. WISN morning news anchor Melinda Davenport will co-host this year’s event.

MPS: Op Ed. Bill that would end current accountability efforts faces tough hearing Wisconsin Republicans joined public school supporters and others during a legislative hearing in Madison last week questioning key points of Assembly Bill 1 – a legislative proposal pushed by Republicans in the Wisconsin Assembly that would weaken the state’s current accountability measures for all publicly funded schools. I attended the meeting with Milwaukee Public Schools’ superintendent Dr. Darienne Driver. We both spoke to the confusion, lack of transparency and other significant issues Assembly Bill 1 would cause for MPS and school districts across the state. Assembly Bill 1 is a step backward in Wisconsin’s school accountability efforts. The current accountability law promotes accountability for all publicly funded students and allows parents and taxpayers to make an apples-to-apples comparison for publicly funded students, whether the students are in public, voucher or private schools. A key component of the current accountability requires all publicly funded students take the same assessment test. The proposal pushed in Assembly Bill 1 would allow for multiple assessment tests. That idea drew concern not only from MPS, but others. Steve Baas of the Metropolitan Milwau-
kee Association of Commerce business organization also opposes the multiple test provisions of Assembly Bill 1 because the public would be more trusting of an accountability system where all schools have the same tests. Senate Republicans voiced alarm about another provision in Assembly Bill 1: the creation of an unelected, new state board with undefined control to convert any Wisconsin underperforming school to a privately run charter school. Under pressure from other Republicans, the author of the Assembly legislation, Representative Jeremy Thiesfeldt, was forced to withdraw this controversial provision of his proposal before the hearing even began. Others testified about the devastating fiscal impact the law would have on school districts across the state. Pewaukee School District
would also give schools grades of A to F, is just plain wrong. Legislators heard hours of testimony of concern from citizens around Wisconsin about the problems this legislation would cause if it became law. After the testimony received last
week, legislators should give Assembly Bill 1 an F and support Wisconsin’s current accountability law. Michael Bonds, Ph.D. President, Milwaukee Board of School Directors
Michael Bonds, Ph.D. has no schools that would be considered underperforming, but Pewaukee Superintendent JoAnn Sternke told legislators Pewaukee would still be impacted. The state pays for independent charter schools by reducing state aid to public school districts across the state, and that means every school district in Wisconsin would see a negative impact from this proposed legislation. Assembly Bill 1, which

Rebuilding Our Community

By Dr. Andrew Calhoun, Ed.D. Special for the Milwaukee Times
A new Selma The recent opening of the major motion picture “Selma” has enabled a new generation to take a stroll back into history to one of the most significant events of the Civil Rights Movement in America. It was Sunday, March 7, 1965, when nearly 600 people began a fiftyfour mile march from Selma, AL to the state capital of Montgomery. This event was a part of the Selma Voting Rights Movement and was planned to commemorate the shooting death of Jimmie Lee Jackson, who was shot just three week earlier by a state trooper while he was trying to protect his mother at a civil rights demonstration. It was on this peaceful march from Selma to Montgomery in which the demonstrators were attacked and brutally assaulted by state troopers and deputies after they crossed the Edmund Pettus Bridge. What happen next was unbelievable and was caught by photographers and journalists as they were
reporting on this event to the nation and the world. That Sunday became known as “Bloody Sunday.” Because of what occurred on that Sunday, more people came to Selma and joined the march. Seeking judicial relief and help from the White House, day by day more pressure was building for intervention. On March 17, the judge granted a restraining order that would allow the demonstrators to continue their march to Montgomery. Over 2000 federalized National Guard, FBI and
U.S. Marshals were assigned to provide protection for the demonstrators as they continued on their journey. On March 25, 1965, well over 25,000 people stood before the state capitol in Montgomery, with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. speaking. As a direct consequence of the events that occurred during this march to Selma, President Johnson was able to call the Congress back into session and pass the Voting Rights Act of 1965, which guaranteed every American age 21 and over the right to
register and vote. Because of that and within four years, the number of blacks eligible to vote rose from 23 to 61 percent. When you think about it, what started out as a simple demonstration and marching 54 miles by a group of about 600 people, turned into something far greater, more meaningful and became a lightning rod for the movement and helped to pass landmark legislation. This coming March will be the 50th Anniversary of the Selma to Montgomery March and boy have things changed in Selma, AL since then. There is no problem crossing that bridge today! We can all learn something from Selma. What do you think? Dr. Andrew Calhoun, can be contacted at andrewiiicalhoun@ gmail.com, Twitter #AC53, and Facebook.

No respect from any quarter
A New Year is upon us. The clock struck 12 a. m. on January 1st and 2015 was born. There will be a carry over of social issues from 2014 because people just love the past. But there is one thing that many have known but no one has said or acknowledged for years. In 2015 let’s expose this ugly yet liberating truth. Any respect the world has had for the African American version of a man is long gone. Respect…what a powerful word. Aretha Franklin sold records singing about it. Many people crave it and others just get it. The African American male doesn’t have it. The African American male has never had respect in the United States. For a short while he may have had a sham form of respect from the African American female, but that left when she exhaled. The saddest part is that there is no miracle turn around coming to rectify the lack of respect for the African American male. When blacks first came to the USA there were two key sets of men: white and black. The formation of a power order between these two would shape a nation. There is only room for one king behind on the throne. In the USA there is no doubt about what man took the throne. There was still a way for the black man to gain respect but he never understood how. Instead of finding some form of dignity to transform into respect, the black man floundered. This early failure is why today’s African American male is so despised and frowned upon by society. The African American female still shows love towards the African American male; many raise them. There is a big difference between love and respect. The inability to protect his woman in the USA cost the African American male dearly. This key fact is why it is so easy for African American females to disassociate with African American males even though their fathers are black. On all levels of society, from the ghetto to Hollywood, you see African American females showing a blatant disdain for African American males. This all stems from the perception that the African American male cannot protect the African American female. In all truth up to this point in history, the facts show that this is the case in the USA. The way African American males are raised by parents of both sexes keeps the male ineffectual. If the boy isn’t chasing a ball he’s studying hard to be a part of society. The role he plays ranges from
USA can drive an African American male insane if he lets it. Once he realizes that it doesn’t matter what society or even African American females think. It is what the African American male knows about himself and the situation he is in that saves him. To know is to see things for what they are and not waste time trying to make them what they aren’t.

convict to CEO. If you look at the USA you have many of both criteria but no respect has been gained for the African American male. Even when the African American male excels in school he
fails. Many educated African Americans seek salvation in denying who they are. No society respects a wannabe. There is a saying: It is what it is. There is no miracle turn around coming that will
change the view or lack of respect for African American males. Many will say this stance is advocating defeat. This is not true. What is being said is, accept what is and move on. To live in the

New Year’s resolves: Benefits of exercise (Week 3) Exercise is one of the more popular resolutions made each year. This week, this writer will feature the 7 Benefits of Exercise as outlined by the Mayo Clinic: No. 1: Exercise controls weight. Exercise can help prevent excess weight gain or help maintain weight loss. When you engage in physical activity, you burn calories. The more intense the activity, the more calories you burn. You don't need to set aside large chunks of time for exercise to reap weightloss benefits. If you can't do an actual workout, get more active throughout the day in simple ways — by taking the stairs instead of the elevator or revving up your household chores. No. 2: Exercise combats health conditions and diseases. Worried about heart disease? Hoping to prevent high blood pressure? No matter what your current weight, being active boosts high-density lipoprotein
(HDL), or "good," cholesterol and decreases unhealthy triglycerides. This one-two punch keeps your blood flowing smoothly, which decreases your risk of cardiovascular diseases. In fact, regular physical activity can help you prevent or manage a wide range of health problems and concerns, including stroke, metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, depression, certain types of cancer, arthritis and falls. No. 3: Exercise improves mood. Need an emotional lift? Or need to blow off some steam after a stressful day? A workout at the gym or a brisk 30-minute walk can help. Physical activity stimulates various brain chemicals that may leave you feeling happier and more relaxed. You may also feel better about your appearance and yourself when you exercise regularly, which can boost your confidence and improve your self-esteem. No. 4: Exercise boosts
energy. Winded by grocery shopping or household chores? Regular physical activity can improve your muscle strength and boost your endurance. Exercise and physical activity deliver oxygen and nutrients to your tissues and help your cardiovascular system work more efficiently. And when your heart and lungs work more efficiently, you have more energy to go about your daily chores. No. 5: Exercise promotes better sleep. Struggling to fall asleep? Or to stay asleep? Regular physical activity can help you fall asleep faster and deepen your sleep. Just don't exercise too close to bedtime, or you may be too energized to fall asleep. No. 6: Exercise puts the spark back into your sex life. Do you feel too tired or too out of shape to enjoy physical intimacy? Regular physical activity can leave you feeling energized and looking better, which may
have a positive effect on your sex life. But there's more to it than that. Regular physical activity can lead to enhanced arousal for women. And men who exercise regularly are less likely to have problems with erectile dysfunction than are men who don't exercise. No. 7: Exercise can be fun. Exercise and physical activity can be a fun way to spend some time. It gives you a chance to unwind, enjoy the outdoors or simply engage in activities that make you happy. Physical activity can also help you connect with family or friends in a fun social setting. So, take a dance class, hit the hiking trails or join a soccer team. Find a physical activity you enjoy, and just do it. If you get bored, try something new. Beloved, the bottom line is exercise and physical activity are a great way to feel better, gain health benefits and have fun. As a general goal, the Mayo Clinic suggests that you aim for at least 30 min-

Bulletin Board MLK Day of Service at Washington High School of Information Technology The legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., shined through the efforts of hundreds of volunteers who came out Monday, January 19, 2015 for a Day in Service. Community members as well as MPS student and staff volunteers worked side-by-side painting murals and completing other beautification projects at several district school buildings. Superintendent Dr. Darienne B. Driver on Monday thanked the many volunteers who gave their time while visiting Washington High School of Information Technology and reminded everyone about the importance of Dr. King’s work and that the day honoring his birthday represents a day of service, reflection and action. “For the adults who are here today, I hope you understand how much of a responsibility all of us have in making sure our young people are successful because it will be our young people who will lead us in the future,” Driver said. Driver said while MLK day rallies and inspires people to give back to the community, people should work every day to build a better tomorrow. “This cannot just be one day of service,” she said. “This really has to be a day where we do this kind of work every day in our schools and community. I want to thank everyone for all you are doing and keep up the good work!”

The two stadiums serve as home field for many MPS high schools, including Bay View High School, Lynde and Harry Bradley Technology and Trade School, Rufus King International High School, James Madison Academic Campus, Barack Obama School of Career and Technical Education, Riverside University High School, South Division High School, Harold S.

Seven tips for choosing the right health plan for you If you bought a health insurance plan through the Marketplace in 2013/4 open enrollment period, you’ll need to decide whether to renew your current plan or change plans for 2014/5. If you are purchasing a plan for the first time, the options can seem overwhelming and you may not know where to start. It’s important to compare health plans because new and more affordable plans may be available this year and you want to choose what works best for you and/or
your family. Here are some things to consider as you compare plans: 1. Are there more affordable plans available this year? Plans are grouped into four categories – Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum – and the category you choose affects how much your premium costs each month, what portion of the bill you pay for things like prescriptions and hospital visits, and total out-of-pocket costs. 2. Do you or your family
qualify for federal financial assistance, called a subsidy, to help pay for a plan? This subsidy may come in the form of a premium tax credit, which reduces your premium payment. Subsidies are only available through the Individual Marketplace. While you don’t have to use the Marketplace to buy insurance, you should fill out an application to see if you qualify for a subsidy. If you do qualify, you must buy a plan from the Marketplace to receive it.
3. What are the plans benefits? All plans must offer coverage for the same Essential Health Benefits, including doctor visits, preventive care and prescription drugs. However, some plans may include additional coverage benefits such as vision, dental and medical management programs for specific diseases. For example, UnitedHealthcare benefit plans include a wide range of programs, services and resources to help you stay healthy. Whether you want to eat right, exercise more, stop smoking or just learn to relax, UnitedHealthcare can connect you with tools to help you meet your health goals. 4. Are your current doctors in the plan’s network? Some plans require you to use doctors and facilities in their network of providers. Others let you go outside of the network for care, but may not cover the costs at the same level. 5. Will your prescriptions be covered? Read the fine print carefully when reviewing plan options to make sure you’re aware of what might not be covered. Separate insurance is typically required for things like prescriptions, vision care and dental coverage. 6. What will your deduct-
ibles, copayments, and maximum out-of-pocket costs be? In general, the lower the premium, the higher the out-of-pocket costs when you need care. Premiums are usually higher for plans that pay more medical costs. For example, if you have a Gold plan you’ll likely pay a higher premium than a Bronze or Silver plan, but may have lower costs when you go to the doctor or use another medical service. 7. Did you know you can’t be denied coverage due to a pre-existing condition like diabetes or heart disease? You can’t be charged a higher premium because of your conditions. And you won’t lose your coverage if you get sick. Remember, the 2015 deadline for insurance is February 15. If you have questions, call the Marketplace Call Center at 1-800-318-2596. TTY users should call 1-855889-4325. You can also visit Localhelp.HealthCare.gov to find help in your area. If you are looking for a UnitedHealthcare health plan, there are many ways to enroll: • Online at uhc.com/join • By calling 1-844-JOINUHC •In person with help from Navigators, insurance brokers or agents.

Personal Finance & Business
By Jason Alderman Director of Visa’s financial education programs
The phrase "downsizing for retirement" is popular with Baby Boomers, the youngest of whom turned 50 last year. It sparks a conversation about transition, which may include buying fewer new things, selling, gifting or donating possessions that are no longer needed and relocating to smaller quarters to create a more comfortable and affordable retirement. If you've diligently saved and planned for retirement, most experts say you should do this "final approach" three to five years before your planned retirement date. If your retirement finances aren't as stable, it's smarter to start the transition as early as possible while time is on your side. The Demand Institute, a nonprofit think tank founded by business research giants Nielsen and The Conference Board, reported last October (http://www.demandinstitute.org) that if the 2008 crash and its effect on employment, investments and housing prices had not happened, the typical Boomer household would have a net worth roughly 2.5 times what it is today. This is all the more reason for many Americans to review and possibly "reset" their retirement clocks. Here are some suggestions to help you figure out where you are on the pre-retirement spectrum and some changes you might consider: Get a retirement checkup. Spend some time with a financial, tax and/or estate advisor to evaluate your current strategies and set – or reset – a reasonable retirement savings goal and date. Consult friends and family for reliable experts first and for other qualified professionals and check online with your state CPA society, the Association for Financial Counseling Planning and Education or the Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards. See if moving makes sense. Great retirement destinations offer more than great weather, inexpensive housing and an affordable tax environment. Consider whether you want to be near family, a thriving arts community or superior health facilities. Where do you start? You've probably seen popular lists of retirement communities in leading magazines, and they supply good food for thought. National agencies like the Council for Community and Economic Research (https://www.c2er.
Resetting your life for retirement org) produces an annual cost of living index for over 300 U.S. urban areas. Get realistic property valuations. Even in a rising economy and recovering housing market, many homeowners need a reality check about real estate prices. The same likely goes for other valuables like antiques, jewelry and art. For real estate, get a broker valuation and do online backup checks with property transfer listings over the last year or two
in your area. As for valuables, check appropriate markets (from professional dealers to eBay) to sell, gift or donate those items and get tax and/ or estate advice before all transactions. Clarify your tax picture. If you make a huge profit on your home, you may owe taxes on the sale. Current IRS rules allow most couples to exclude up to $500,000 in home sale gains from their taxable income and singles to exclude up to $250,000.
Check with your tax advisor and consult IRS Publication 523 (http://www.irs.gov/ uac/Publication-523,-Selling-Your-Home-1), "Selling Your Home." Also, keep local property taxes and city and state taxes in mind if you're considering an out-ofstate move. Decide what you plan to do post-retirement. Retirees may have at least 20 to 30 years of lifespan to fill postretirement. If you're hoping to keep working, start a
business or transition permanently into travel or leisure activities, these future goals have to align with your current retirement plan. Bottom line: Everyone should set a "final approach" for retirement. That means reviewing your investments, lifestyle goals and the possibility of a post-retirement career so you can adjust your money behavior to match.

Special Features: A Tribute to MLK
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. led the civil rights movement and fought for racial equality with something much stronger than tolerance (part 2 of 2) (Continued from last week) Martin Luther King's Dream As we consider giving new life to "The Dream," we have to acknowledge that, in Dr. King's speaking and writing, "The Dream" does begin with God. For without God, there is no absolute transcendent truth on which to base a call to justice. Nor is there any source from which to draw the strength to love about which he spoke. A certain degree of skepticism about this perspective is understandable. Too often, those who claim to be Christians have failed to live in keeping with the clear teachings of the Christian Scriptures. These failures have frequently been in matters of race. It is clear from the Bible (and Dr. King affirmed) that the church ought to provide spiritual and moral leadership in society. However, as we observe the history of the American church, many parts of it have been passive, or even regressive, in matters of race. Even in the current era, the church speaks to the issues of the day with a fragmented voice. A case in point is the tendency for AfricanAmerican clergy to align with Democratic candidates, while many white pastors align with Republicans. Yet, Dr. King implored people not to dismiss Christianity on the basis of these observations. Dr. King lived in an era when the leadership of the church in addressing racism was even less credible than it is today. Dr. King clearly understood that too often there was a difference between what Christianity taught in the Bible and the varieties of Christianity observed around him. His life was devoted to challenging this nation to live out a more consistent obedience to the moral absolutes of the Bible. His repeated plea was for men and women to enter into the kind of personal relationship with God that transcended that which could be seen and that which was being experienced. Hear Dr. King as he speaks to the man or woman who contends that God is unnecessary or irrelevant to our modern lives: "At times we may feel that we do not need God, but on the day when the storms of disappointment rage, the winds of disaster blow, and the tidal waves of grief beat against our lives, if we do not have a deep and patient faith, our emotional lives will be ripped to shreds. There is so much frustration in the world because we have relied on gods rather than
God. We have genuflected before the god of science only to find that it has given us the atomic bomb, producing fears and anxieties that science can never mitigate. We have worshiped the god of pleasure only to discover that thrills play out and sensations are short-lived. We have bowed before the god of money only to learn that there are such things as love and friendship that money cannot buy and that in a world of possible depressions, stock market crashes, and bad business investments, money is a rather uncertain deity. These transitory gods are not able to save us or bring happiness to the human heart. Only God is able. "It is faith in Him that we must rediscover. With this faith we can transform bleak and desolate valleys into sunlit paths of joy and bring new light into the dark caverns of pessimism." (Strength to Love, p. 51) Are you discouraged about the prospect of us never overcoming the racial divisiveness that permeates this nation? Or are you frustrated by your inability to genuinely love others who are different from you? Martin Luther King recommended faith in Jesus of Nazareth as antidotes for both maladies. "Evil can be cast out, not by man alone nor by a dictatorial God who invades our lives, but when we open the door and invite God through Christ to enter. 'Behold, I stand at the door, and knock; if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.' God is too courteous to break open the door, but when we open it in faith believing, a divine and human confrontation will transform our sin-ruined lives into radiant personalities." (Strength to Love, p. 126) Racial equality A relationship with God gives us the power to overcome whatever sin we may be struggling with, including the sin of racism. Racism stands not only as a barrier between people, but as an offense between us and God. The reason Dr. King could recommend Christ as a solution to the problem of racism is Jesus' death on the cross paid the price for all of our sins. He then rose from the dead and now offers us the forgiveness of God and the power to live new lives. Dr. King put it this way: "Man is a sinner in need of God's forgiving grace. This is not deadening pessimism; it is Christian realism."
(Strength to Love, p. 51) Our need for Jesus is truly the great equalizer of the races. We all are sinners in need of a Savior. We all stand before God, not on the basis of one race's superiority over another, morally, culturally, financially, politically, or in any other way. “Evil can be cast out, not by man alone nor by a dictatorial God who invades our lives, but when we open the door and invite God through Christ to enter.� —MLK All the races of the world, all the cultures of the world, need the same Savior. His name is Jesus. What Martin Luther King described as our need for a "divine and human confrontation" is offered at God's initiative. It requires that we place our faith in what Jesus did as our own personal payment for sin, and inviting Him to enter our lives "when we open the door and invite God through Christ to en-
ter." Dr. King's words still ring true today. We can give new life to "The Dream," following the path of Dr. King. Our path may not lead to martyrdom by an assassin's bullet as it did for Martin Luther King, but it does lead to dying to our selfish ways and self-sufficiency. Such a faith is not a weak-kneed, escapist religious exercise, but a courageous pursuit of that which is ultimately good, right and true. "In his magnanimous love, God freely offers to do for us what we cannot do for ourselves. Our humble and openhearted acceptance is faith. So by faith we are saved. Man filled with God and God operating through man bring unbelievable changes in our individual and social lives." (Strength to Love, p. 51) "The Dream" starts with God as revealed through His Son, Jesus Christ. Through a relationship with Him, we can be agents of healing in a world that is sick with racial and ethnic conflict. Won't you seriously consider placing your faith in Christ, as Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. did? God offers us this relationship with Him, and we simply respond: Jesus Christ, I invite you to
come into my life, to forgive me of my sin, to give me a new relationship with you. Bring into my heart your love and your power to love others. Thank you for transforming my life right now. If you have surrendered to Jesus Christ, pray for a lifechanging faith and a growing dependence on Him. Only He can bring into our hearts His supernatural love and the power to love others. As God transforms our lives, we have the potential to embody that which Martin Luther King dreamed.
"Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that." - Martin Luther King, Jr.

‘I Have A Dream’ - address at The March on Washington, D.C. on August 28, 1963 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 signed the Emancipation Proclamation. 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. It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of captivity. But one hundred years later, we must face the tragic fact that the Negro is still not free. One hundred years later, the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination. One hundred years later, the Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity. One hundred years later, the Negro is still languishing in the corners of American society and finds himself an exile in his own land. So we have come here today to dramatize an appalling condition. In a sense we have come to our nation’s capital to cash a check. When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir. This note was a promise that all men would be guaranteed the inalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. It is obvious today that America has defaulted on
this promissory note insofar as her citizens of color are concerned. Instead of honoring this sacred obligation, America has given the Negro people a bad check which has come back marked “insufficient funds.” 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 check that will give us upon demand the riches of freedom and the security of justice. We have also come to this hallowed spot to remind America of the fierce urgency of now. This is no time to engage in the luxury of cooling off or to take the tranquilizing drug of gradualism. Now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate valley of segregation to the sunlit path of racial justice. Now is the time to open the doors of opportunity to all of God’s children. Now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood. It would be fatal for the nation to overlook the urgency of the moment and to underestimate the determination of the Negro. This sweltering summer of the Negro’s legitimate discontent will not pass until there is an invigorating autumn of freedom and equality. Nineteen sixty-three is not an end, but a beginning. Those who hope that the Negro needed to blow off steam and will now be content will have a rude awakening if the nation returns to business as usual. There will be neither rest nor tranquility in America until the Negro is granted his
citizenship rights. The whirlwinds of revolt will continue to shake the foundations of our nation until the bright day of justice emerges. But there is something that I must say to my people who stand on the warm threshold which leads into the palace of justice. In the process of gaining our rightful place we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds. Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred. We must forever conduct our struggle on the high plane of dignity and discipline. We must not allow our creative protest to degenerate into physical violence. Again and again we must rise to the majestic heights of meeting physical force with soul force. The marvelous new militancy which has engulfed the Negro community must not lead us to distrust of all white people, for many of our white brothers, as evidenced by their presence here today, have come to realize that their destiny is tied up with our destiny and their freedom is inextricably bound to our freedom. We cannot walk alone. And as we walk, we must make the pledge that we shall
march ahead. We cannot turn back. There are those who are asking the devotees of civil rights, “When will you be satisfied?” We can never be satisfied as long as our bodies, heavy with the fatigue of travel, cannot gain lodging in the motels of the highways and the hotels of the cities. We cannot be satisfied as long as the Negro’s basic mobility is from a smaller ghetto to a larger one. We can never be satisfied as long as a Negro in Mississippi cannot vote and a Negro in New York believes he has nothing for which to vote. No, no, we are not satisfied, and we will not be satisfied until justice rolls down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream. I am not unmindful that some of you have come here out of great trials and tribulations. Some of you have come fresh from narrow cells. Some of you have come from areas where your quest for freedom left you battered by the storms of persecution and staggered by the winds of police brutality. You have been the veterans of creative suffering. Continue to work with the faith that unearned suffering is redemptive. Go back to Mississippi, go back to Alabama, go back to Georgia, go back to Louisiana, go back to the slums and ghettos of our northern cities, knowing that somehow this situation can and will be changed. Let us not wallow in the valley of despair. I say to you today, my friends, that in spite of the difficulties and frustrations of the moment, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream. 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 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. I have a dream that one day the state of Alabama, whose governor’s lips are presently dripping with the words of interposition and nullification, will be transformed into a situation where little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls and walk together as sisters and brothers. I have a dream today. I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made straight, and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together. This is our hope. This is the faith with which I return to the South. With this faith we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope. With this faith we will be able to transform the jangling discords of our nation into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood. With this faith we will be able to work together, to pray together, to struggle together, to go to jail together, to stand up for freedom together, knowing that we will be free one day. This will be the day when all of God’s children will be able to sing with a new meaning, “My country, ‘tis of thee, sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing. Land where my fathers died, land of the pilgrim’s pride, from every mountainside, let freedom ring.” And if America is to be a great nation this must become true. So let freedom ring from the prodigious hilltops of New Hampshire. Let freedom ring from the mighty mountains of New York. Let freedom ring from the heightening Alleghenies of Pennsylvania!
