I Have A Dream...

This week, we have been looking at the history of Martin Luther King and the importance of Barrack Obama, Americans first black president, in relation to Martin Luther King Jr's 'I have a dream' speech.
We then worked on coming up with our own 'I have a dream' speech, where we spoke of our own dreams about the current issues in our world. Here is one of the speeches we wrote.

We have a dream that one day, on this planet, there will be peace, that there will no wars between neighbouring countries like Gaza and Israel. We have a dream today.
We have a dream that fear will not be felt by citizens of our country and that child abuse will not take place. We have a dream today.
We have a dream that hungry children will not suffer from starvation and they will be fed and clothed. We have a dream they will live in happiness and freedom. We have a dream today. We have a dream that we will be treated with respect, justice and equality.That Racism will not take place and that all the countries of the world will unite as one to stop this offensive form of abuse. We have a dream that our colour of our skin will not matter and we will be seen as our inward personality and not our outward appearance.We have a dream today.
We have a dream that our future generation to come will be given great opportunities for jobs and rewards because of our input. We have a dream today.
We have a dream that innocent soldiers will not have to risk their life fighting for wars that should have never started. That we will live in peace one day. We have a dream today.
