who talked about a promised land.

and sing about the dream of Martin Luther King.

- In his dream he saw
the people of this land walking side by side.
- White man, black man,
red man, yellow man, loving one another with pride.

the day his dream became a real thing.

sing about the dream of Martin Luther King.

was wrong...
- and he knew the fight
would be long...

- about a new day...
- but he walked....
- a dangerous way.
- He knew...
- the life of the slum...
- but he sang, "We Shall
Over Come."
