Unit 14 Freedom fightersI HAVE A DREAM 我有一个梦想
In the summer of 1963 Martin Luther King； Jr gave a speech to thousands of black people who marched on Washington DC； the capital of the USA。 His speech—“I have a dream”—made him famous all over the world。
At that time in the southern states； blacks were not treated as equal citizens。 Although slavery ended in the USA in 1865； almost a hundred years before； the South had its own laws to continue the separation of blacks and whites。 Mixed race marriages were forbidden by law。 There were separate sections for blacks in shops； restaurants； hospitals； and on buses and trains。 Often blacks were not allowed into hotels； schools or libraries at all。 Black children were educated in separate schools； and black people had no right to vote in the southern states。
King fought for political rights for black people in the USA。By doing this he set an example for the rest of the world。 His message was that black people should not be separated but should be treated with respect in the same way as other people。
Born in 1929； King went to university when he was fifteen。 Winning a scholarship gave him the chance to go to a college in one of the northern states； where black people had equal rights and were free to live； study and work as they wished。 All his life he believed that it was right and necessary to demand changes in society if people did not have their civil rights。 He believed that he could achieve that goal by peaceful actions； not by violence。
On December 1； 1955； Rosa Parks； a black woman； got on a bus in Alabama and sat down in the“Whitesonly” section。 She refused to stand up for a white man and was arrested by the police。 King led a boycott of the bus company。 For 381 days； black people refused to take the city buses。 In the end the government lawyers in the capital said that the bus company was wrong to separate blacks from whites。
Winning this case gave King national attention。 He led many nonviolent demonstrations against racial discrimination and the Vietnam War during which he himself was often beaten or arrested by the police。 One of these was in Birmingham； Alabama。 Housing conditions for blacks in Birmingham were bad and there were few jobs for blacks。 King wrote an important letter from prison。“We have waited 340 years for our rights！ We find it difficult to wait。 This ‘wait has almost always meant‘Never’；” he said。
It was during the“March on Washington DC” in 1963 that he gave the speech“I Have a Dream”； which inspired people of all races to fight for equality。 The following year； King received the Nobel Prize for Peace。 In the same year； a new Civil Rights Act was passed and in 1965 a new Voting Rights Bill became law。 From then on； all black people had the right to vote。
Martin Luther King； Jr was murdered in 1968。 However； his struggle had already changed the whole of society in the USA。Soon after his death； black people started enjoying the rights they had waited and fought for so long。
1963年的夏天，马丁·路德·金在美国首都华盛顿面对几千个游行示威的黑人发表了一个演讲。
他的演讲—“我有一个梦想”—使得他闻名全世界。当时，南方各州的黑人都受到不公正的待遇。尽管在1865年，也就是将近一百年前，美国就结束了奴隶制度，南方却仍然还有自己的法律将黑人和白人隔离开。法律禁止种族通婚。商店、饭馆、医院、公共汽车、火车都有为黑人而设的隔离区。通常旅馆、学校和图书馆根本不允许黑人进入。黑人孩子在单独的学校里接受教育，南部诸州的黑人也没有选举权。
金为了美国黑人的政治权利而斗争。通过斗争，他给全世界其他的人树立了榜样。 他认为黑人不应该被隔离而应该和其他人一样受到尊重。
金出生于1929年，他在十五岁时就上了大学。他获得了奖学金，这使他争取到了去北方的一个州上大学的机会，那里的黑人都享有平等的权利，他们可以自由地生活，学习和做他们想做的工作。他毕生都认为要是人们享受不到民权，那么改变社会是正确的并且也很有必要。金相信他能够通过和平而不是暴力的方式达到这一目标。
1955年11月1日，一位黑人妇女，骆莎·帕克斯在阿拉巴马州上了公共汽车并坐在了“白人区”里。她拒绝为一位白人男士让座而被警察逮捕。金领导了抵制公交公司的运动。381天里，黑人都拒绝乘坐城市公共汽车。最后，首都政府的律师发表声明说公交公司把黑人同白人分开是错误的。这次斗争的胜利使金受到了全国人的关注。他又领导了许多非暴力示威活动来反对种族歧视和对越作战，其间，他自己经常被打或被警方逮捕。
其中的一次就发生在阿拉巴马的伯明翰。伯明翰的黑人的住房条件非常糟糕，而且也很难找到工作。金在监狱里写了一封非常重要的信。
他写到“我们等自己的权力都等了340年了；让我们再等下去已经很难了；也几乎就是不可能。”就在1963年的华盛顿游行示威中他发表的演讲“我有一个梦想”，—它鼓励各种族的人为平等的权利而战。几年后，金获得了诺贝尔和平奖。同年，一项新的民权法被通过， 1965年一项新的选举权法案（被通过而）上升为法律。从那以后，所有的黑人都有了选举权。
1968年，马丁·路德·金被谋杀。然而他领导的斗争已经改变了整个美国社会。他死后不久，黑人们就开始享用他们为之等待和奋斗了多年的权利。
