美国法定节假日--马丁路德金日-新东方前途出国

马丁路德金是美国著名的黑人民权引路人。我们对于他最开始的了解就是他1963年8月在华盛顿林肯纪念堂发表的著名演讲—I have a dream.

下面节选了其中比较著名的三句，后附中文简译版（供大家学习参考），以便进一步了解美国文化。

I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed:” We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.”我有一个梦想，有一天，这个国家将会奋起，实现其立国信条的真谛：“我们认为这些真理不证自明：人人生而平等。”

I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia, the sons of former slaves and the sons of formers slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.

我有一个梦想，有一天，在佐治亚州的红色山岗上，昔日奴隶的儿子能够同昔日奴隶主的儿子同席而坐，亲如手足。

I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.

我有一个梦想，有一天，我的四个孩子将生活在一个不是以肤色的深浅，而是以品格的优劣为评判标准的国家里。
