I still have a dream that one day all of God’s children will have food and clothing and material well-being for their bodies, culture and education for their minds, and freedom for their spirits. So yes, the dream has been shattered, and I have had my nightmarish experiences, but I tell you this morning once more that I haven’t lost the faith. So this morning there is so much that we have to offer to the world. And this is why John said, "God is love," so that he who hates does not know God, but he who loves at that moment has the key that opens the door to the meaning of ultimate reality. And I know now that Jesus is right, that love is the way. The man who hates can’t think straight the man who hates can’t reason right the man who hates can’t see right the man who hates can’t walk right. Hate does something to the soul that causes one to lose his objectivity. In the faces and even the walk of too many Klansmen of the South, I’ve seen hate. I’ve seen it on the faces of too many sheriffs of the South - I’ve seen hate. I’ve seen too much hate to want to hate myself hate is too great a burden to bear.
