 
I would like to read you something
important. It was written by
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr
During the time of my childhood when
things were kind of scary,
kind of like they are right now.
Allie: okay I love reading
Puey: How does it go?
Obediah: I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up...
...this nation will rise up live
out the true meaning of its creed
We hold these truths to be self-evident...
We hold these truths to be self-evident, 
MLK: that all men are created equal. I have dream.
Puey: What does that mean? 
Allie: I think has something to do
with our founding fathers. 
Obediah:  That's right our forefathers
wrote the Declaration of Independence.
And they thought that everyone should be
equal.
So what was his dream about? Obediah: well,
he goes on to say that his dream is that...
MLK: 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!
I have a dream today.
Obediah: by the content of their character. 
Allie: Wow, I've heard that speech before
but I never
really thought about what he was saying.
Obediah: I think he was saying that he felt left
out of the forefather's dream that he
didn't feel equal.
Puey: Well, we don't want that.
Lots of people feel left out. 
Obediah: They still do.
Allie: Yeah. That's horrible. What can we do?
Obediah: Well, we can treat everyone with
tolerance that means being accepting of
everyone.
And we can use empathy to listen to
others.
Especially those who are being treated
unfairly.
Allie: Thanks for sharing the story, Obediah. 
Puey: Yeah
Obediah: Any way to make this a good day.
Puey: a very good day 
Allie: Today.
