I was inspired by Dr. King's speech. It made me want to bercome a teacher and share his message with other.
My dream is to get the Martin Luther King Junior award.
If Martin Luther King never made the speech I would have almost no friends. Second of all I would not go to the same school, and not know half the people I know now.
My dream is to get a college degree and become famous.
Dr. King affected my life because my classroom wouldn't look the same & I wouldn't know as much people as I do now.

My dream is to go to collage and get a nice job and stand up for what"s right and find a nice friend who stand"s up for people that get bullied.
Dr.Martin Luther King Jr. was a very strong person. He fought for his equal rights. Martin Luther King was a minister. He went to college at the age of 15. In 1968 Martin luther king died. He gave an important speech. My dream is to become a singer and that I will have a lot of fans. Martins dream affects us because he help all of us be to be able to play with everyone no matter what color.
To be friends with everybody, but that can be hard you can't always get along with everybody.
It affects life in a huge way because a lot of my friends are blacks. A lot of sport players are blacks and there usually very good sports wouldn't be as fun without them. A lot of good chefs are blacks lots of delicious food we eat at restaurants are made by blacks. Martin Luther King Jr.'s dream affects our life in a huge way.
Because of his speech his dream lets me play with my friends and it lets me hang with cool teachers and my classes would let me be in a black and white school different is sometimes cool.
Martin Luther King's speech affects me because I would not be in the school that I'm in right now if it wasn't for him. My dream is for whites and black kids and grown ups to get along and to stop murders and kidnappers and arsonists. I want to stop burning stuff like buildings.
I was glad that he had a dream.He made a big difference.If it was not for him it would just be all whites.I would not like that and it would not be fair!Dr.Martin Luther King Jr. was married to Coretta.He went to college when he was only 15!On August 28 1963 he marched in Washington Dc he shared his dreams with all people and was not judged.
Martin Luther king wanted everybody to live peacefully and not everybody to get teased by the color of their skin. Martin Luther King had a dream the whole time when he was little he always wanted us to be treated fairly. And he wanted us to be nice to our friends. When Martin Luther King had a dream I had one that other people won't be mean to me.
My dream is to teach people about history not in the teaching way but in the archeology way. Martin Luther King Jr. helped me see the way everyone is equal in a good way. His dream affects my life today because some of my friends are black or biracial black. I am very thankful for what he did for us, he even died because of what he stood up for.
Dr.king`s speech is very important to me because most of my friends would be gone if he had not made that speech. His speech made me happy.
