Martin Luther King, Jr.
INSPIRATION
"Now let me say finally that we have difficulties ahead but I haven't despaired. Somehow I maintain hope in spite of hope. And I've talked about the difficulties and how hard the problems will be as we tackle them. But I want to close by saying this afternoon, that I still have faith in the future. And I still believe that these problems can be solved. And so I will not join anyone who will say that we still can't develop a coalition of conscience." - Martin Luther King, Jr., exerpt from "The Other America" speech, 1967.
En Espa ñol:
Ahora por último quisiera señalar que tenemos dificultades por delante, pero no me he desanimado. De alguna manera, mantengo la esperanza a pesar de la esperanza. Y he hablado sobre las dificultades y lo difíciles que serán los problemas a medida que los abordamos. Pero quiero concluir esta tarde añadiendo que todavía tengo fe en el futuro. Y todavía creo que estos problemas pueden ser resueltos. Y entonces no me uniré a nadie que diga que todavía no podemos desarrollar una coalición de conciencia ". - Martin Luther King, Jr., extracto del discurso de" La otra America ", 1967
