Description

"Meu sonho é de que um dia, nas rubras colinas da Geórgia, os filhos dos antigos escravos e os filhos dos antigos donos de escravos poderão sentar-se juntos à mesa da fraternidade. [...] Meu sonho é de que meus quatro filhos um dia irão viver num país onde não serão julgados pela cor de sua pele, e sim pelo seu caráter." Assassinado no dia 4 de abril de 1968, na sacada de um hotel em Memphis, Tennessee, no sul dos Estados Unidos, Martin Luther King foi um homem múltiplo. Pensador, poeta, discípulo de Gandhi, que aplicava a filosofia da não violência na luta pelos direitos civis dos afro-americanos, soube ir além da questão da cor para atacar o problema mais geral da pobreza. Prêmio Nobel da Paz de 1964, o célebre pastor batista nos deixou uma voz que ressoa ainda hoje, nos convidando a não abandonar nossos sonhos.
