DO YOU HAVE A DREAM AS WELL?


Well, humans, we know we have been asking you for some let's say sad information. Yes, the topics we are worried about in Earth are a lot, but there are time when "darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that". And you had and have still people that can bring that light.

We have known this Martin Luther King Jr., and we are amazed at how much integrity, love, perseverance, hope and a bunch of good feelings this only man could represent. We are sure you know Mr. King very well and therefore, and as usual, you can give us more precious information.

You could, for example, choose one of the ten sentences of the video and explain what you think about that thought, how it makes you feel and how important it was when it was said. How about around 50 words? Yes, fifty sounds right.

Sure your teacher can tell you some thing about some of the sentences as a lead-in...




And, even if you know him very, very well, just in case you need some more details, you may want to take a look here. Read the introduction and that should give you a hint...

Once you are done with that, there are certain topics from that biography that you should tell us more about, and by doing that in groups will make your life easier. We thought it would be nice if you made some drawings about some moments from the life of Martin Luther King. We were not there, so... In his biography, there are descriptions and links to those moments.

You can do it here (your teacher can give you a copy):

Oh, by the way. We know it might be tiring and that we keep asking things, but, could you tell us more about these? All the information is in the biography you read a while ago (What was it? When did it happen? Why?). Once you have it, you can explain it to the rest of your classmates.
