I HAVE A DREAM

Martin Luther King was a fighter for the civil rights of African American people. He devoted all his life to helping people who needed it. 
He was against the violence, so his fight was through words and speeches. These are the best weapons to obtain something. 
In the course of his life, he did a lot of speeches, but the most famous; eloquent and powerful is, without doubts, the speech "I have a dream".
In this speech, Martin Luther King speaks about equality between white and black people. In his dream there was a world where people weren't judged by their colour, they were judged by the content of their souls.
I have read and listened to his speech some times, and I've been thinking about it.
I have a dream too, similar as Luther King's one. In my dream all of us are judged by our behaviour and, above all, by our acts. In my dream, people help each other in all they need, and all of us are equal in the eyes of the law, and equal in rights.
Unfortunately my dream, and Luther Kings’s one, are still dreams. 
It's true that Martin Luther King had achieved a lot of advances in equality, but nowadays we are still living in a world where prejudices are, for a big part of the society, more important than judgments, and where inequality rules in a lot of jobs and houses. Selfishness and avarice are dominating the society too, while in the third world are dying approximately 60000 humans because of the hunger; when we need only 50000 million of dollars once a year to solve this big problem; the Governments of the first world gave to the banking approximately 1 billion 350000 million dollars in the year 2009.
In this world we are living in, people is usually judged by the appearances, and, despite that in theory everyone is equal in the eyes of the law, into practise the law isn't the same for a rich man or woman than for a poor one. 
But if all of us have social conscience, and we act together, we can make this world a better world. And in this new world everyone will be happier.
I'm sure my dream, and Martin Luther King's one, will be true in the future, we have progressed a lot in equality, and slowly but untiringly we are building a better world. We still have a lot of work to do, but if all of us cooperate together we will achieve this better world. 

THIS DREAM CAN BE TRUE! AND YOU CAN HELP ON IT.
