“ The marvelous new militancy which has engulfed the negro community must not lead us to a distrust of all white people, for many of our white brothers as evidenced by their presence here today,have come to realize that their destiny is tied to our destiny.” It is very important because he is saying that white people are realizing that the skin color doesn´t matter at all, that they are allthe same, that there is an equality and that is a very important step for freedom.
“And as we walk, we must make the pledge that we should always march ahead.” This line of the speech is veryimportant because it might be short but it sends a large message, it is a message of never giving up, a message that shows that they are all very strong and they are always one step ahead of the others....
