    I have a dream

    American dream is dead. MLK’s dream never even was a reality.

      I don’t think his quote was referring to what people call the American Dream. He was referring to his own dream of ending segregation and racism.

          Eh. Either way, America CAN change, acting like having a dream is naive because it won’t come true is stupid. With that attitude it obviously won’t come to, but if enough people believe things can change. No one thought the Civil Rights Act would ever pass and it still did.
