Can anyone post a script of this speech ?… I’d appreciate it. In one of my classes, we studied how movements are repackaged into the mainstream and often given another meaning, or purpose. For one, I certainly never hear this speech from him, it’s always ” I have a dream”. Yet just hearing a few minutes of this one, i’d say this one speaks alot more into Corporatism and Capitalistic sides of society. Which explains alot more about race, and peace than what the mainstream portrays.

You got it. Here’s a link to the speech.

Proving yet again, as a commenter above said, that Dr. King’s legacy went far beyond that of Civil Rights crusader.
So often we seek to oversimplify the past out of a desire to make it easily explainable. The truth of history is far more complex and also far more sublime.
