Five score years ago a great American |
| [00:06.57] |
In whose symbolic shadow we stand |
| [00:09.63] |
Today signed the Emancipation Proclamation |
| [00:17.61] |
This momentous decree came as a great |
| [00:21.46] |
Beacon light of hope to millions of |
| [00:24.67] |
Negro slaves who had been seared |
| [00:28.70] |
In the flames of withering injustice |
| [00:33.73] |
It came as a |
| [00:35.23] |
Joyous daybreak to end the long night |
| [00:40.29] |
Of their captivity |
| [00:44.07] |
But one hundred years later the |
| [00:49.05] |
Negro still is not free |
| [00:55.05] |
One hundred years later |
| [00:58.62] |
The life of the Negro is still sadly |
| [01:01.52] |
Crippled by the manacles of segregation |
| [01:06.02] |
And the chains of discrimination |
| [01:09.32] |
One hundred years later |
| [01:12.63] |
The Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty |
| [01:17.52] |
In the midst of a vast |
| [01:18.63] |
Ocean of material prosperity |
| [01:22.17] |
One hundred years later |
| [01:28.80] |
The Negro is still languished in the |
| [01:31.60] |
Corners of American society |
| [01:34.74] |
And finds himself an exile in his own land |
| [01:37.24] |
And so we've come |
| [01:39.49] |
Here today to dramatize a shameful condition |
| [01:47.29] |
In a sense we've come to our nation's capital |
| [01:50.19] |
To cash a check When the architects of our |
| [01:55.37] |
Tepublic wrote the magnificent words |
| [01:59.47] |
Of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence |
| [02:04.82] |
They were signing a promissory note |
| [02:09.04] |
To which every American was to fall heir |
| [02:13.38] |
This note was a promise that all men |
| [02:17.31] |
Yes black men as well as white men |
| [02:21.82] |
Would be guaranteed the |
| [02:23.67] |
Unalienable Rights of Life Liberty |
| [02:27.27] |
And the pursuit of Happiness |
| [02:30.66] |
It is obvious today that |
| [02:34.08] |
America has defaulted on this promissory note |
| [02:37.69] |
Insofar as her citizens of color are concerned |
| [02:43.36] |
Instead of honoring this sacred obligation |
| [02:48.82] |
America has given the Negro people a bad check |
| [02:53.39] |
A check which has come back marked insufficient funds |
| [05:38.97] |
|
| [05:40.09] |
But we refuse to believe that |
| [05:40.68] |
|
