=I Have a Dream =

On August 28, 1963, Martin Luther King gave a speech that has come to define his work for equality and freedom.

While our dreams today for both our country and ourselves might be different from those Dr. King expressed, it is important for all of us to have dreams to help direct our lives. We should have dreams to help us be better people, to help us prepare for the career we would like, and to help us be successful people. = ﻿Dream Activity =
