"I Have a Dream"
This article is about the speech by Martin Luther King Jr.. For other uses, see I Have A Dream
"I Have a Dream" is a 17-minute public speech by martin Luther King,Jr. delivered on August 28, 1963, in which he called for racial equality and an end to discrimination. The speech, from the steps of the Lincoln Memorial during the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, was a defining moment of the American Civil Right Movement. Delivered to over 200,000 civil rights supporters,the speech was ranked the top American speech of the 20th century by a 1999 poll of scholars of public address.According to U.S. Representative John Lewis, who also spoke that day as the President of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, "Dr. King had the power, the ability, and the capacity to transform those steps on the Lincoln Memorial into a monumental area that will forever be recognized. By speaking the way he did, he educated, he inspired, he informed not just the people there, but people throughout America and unborn generations."
At the end of the speech, King departed from his prepared text for a partly improvised peroration on the theme of "I have a dream", possibly prompted by Mahalia Jackson's cry, "Tell them about the dream, Martin!" He had first delivered a speech incorporating some of the same sections in Detroit in June 1963, when he marched on Woodward Avenue with Walter Reuther and the Reverend C.L. Franklin, and had rehearsed other parts.

India
There are two parts of India,one part is the well educated with money .the other part is poor with no education.You can be born into a white colour job or you can move to the city and work hard for a education.The difference is that China started first and are more advanced similarly.They came from control government and are moving up fast (China & India).Plus they are growing also.India is growing because of freedom and reform,basically the government doesn't have control like before.They're moving into the city so they can get and education plus they're making more money.If the poor people don't move to the city they will get poorer.Indian economy is getting better.

The Danger Of A Single Story
All my characters were white and blue-eyed and they played in the snow. Now, this despite the fact that I lived in Nigeria.I had never been outside Nigeria. We didn’t have snow, we ate mangoes.How impressionable and vulnerable we are in the face of a story, particularly as children. But because of writers like Chinua Achebe and Camara Laye I went through a mental shift in my perception of literature. I realized that people like me, girls with skin the color of chocolate, whose kinky hair could not form ponytails, could also exist in literature. So what the discovery of African writers did for me was it saved me from having a single story of what books are. So the year I turned eight we got a new house boy. His name was Fide and I was startled. It had not occurred to me that anybody in his family could actually make something. All I had heard about them was how poor they were, so that it had become impossible for me to see them as anything else but poor. My American roommate was shocked by me. She asked where I had learned to speak English so well. She asked if she could listen to what she called my “tribal music,” and was consequently very disappointed when I produced my tape of Mariah Carey. I must say that before I went to the U.S. I didn’t consciously identify as African. But in the U.S. whenever Africa came up people turned to me. I remember walking around on my first day in Guadalajara, watching the people going to work, rolling up tortillas in the marketplace, smoking, laughing. I remember first feeling slight surprise. And then I was overwhelmed with shame. I realized that I had been so immersed in the media coverage of Mexicans that they had become one thing in my mind, the abject immigrant. I had bought into the single story of Mexicans and I could not have been more ashamed of myself. I recently spoke at a university where a student told me that it was such a shame that Nigerian men were physical abusers like the father character in my novel. I told him that I had just read a novel called American Psycho.That it was such a shame that young Americans were serial murderers. Now, obviously I said this in a fit of mild irritation. All of these stories make me who I am. But to insist on only these negative stories is to flatten my experience and to overlook the many other stories that formed me. The single story creates stereotypes.The problem with stereotypes is not that they are untrue, but that they are incomplete. They make one story become the only story. Stories matter, many stories matter. Stories have been used to dispossess and to malign, but stories can also be used to empower and to humanize. Stories can break the dignity of a people, but stories can also repair that broken dignity. That when we reject the single story, when we realize that there is never a single story about any place,we regain a kind of paradise.
