What was the response to Martin Luther king's I have a dream speech?

Answer 1

That all depends on who you ask. The black community, of course was strongly behind this speech. The idea of dreams has a way of connecting to the black youth, as everyone knows how much blacks like to sleep a whole lot. The white community was generally ambivalent to the whole thing because, let's face it, who really listens to black people anyway. This is not meant to be insulting or racist. That is just the way people thought back then. This in no way is indicitve of the thoughts or actions of wikipedia or any of it's employees.
