急求马丁.路得.金我有一个梦想的历史背景(英文版)
《我有一个梦想》(I have a dream)是马丁·路德·金于1963年8月28日在华盛顿林肯纪念堂发表的著名演讲,内容主要关于黑人种族平等。对美国甚至世界影响很大。
1774年,美国的建国者们把奴隶纳入不予进口的商品之列,并直到1783年才废除了奴隶贸易。除两个州外奴隶制未被完全废除──南卡罗来纳州和佐治亚州──他们因惧怕经济受损而坚决反对。所有北方各州都已早早地废除了奴隶制──最晚一个是1804年的新泽西州。然而南方坚持1845年后加入联盟的新州可以保持奴隶制。
从1830年后,在北方就有一个坚定,但却不那么有效的声音在要求全面废除奴隶制。随后,1861年,11个南方州成立南部邦联,脱离主张废奴的美利坚合众国。南方和北方间的南北战争随之爆发。经过四年的斗争和超过50万人的死亡后,北方获得胜利。《解放宣言》通过了,奴隶终于获得了自由。
最终,成千上万的普通黑人进入了中产阶级,获得了医生、律师、银行家、经理和其他职位。据估计到2000年,每三个美国人中就有一个是非白人──这包括亚洲人、西班牙裔人和黑人──凭着毅力、教育和更大的推动,马丁·路德·金的伟大梦想或许会在下一个20年中变为现实。
扩展资料马丁·路德·金,乃是著名的美国黑人民权运动领袖。不少人居然把这位诺贝尔和平奖得主,同四百多年前德国宗教改革领袖马丁·路德相混淆,而对他的主要主张是“非暴力抵抗”,1956年,在26岁的马丁·路德·金第一次领导黑人市民,抵制蒙哥马利市公共汽车公司的种族隔离制度时,他就举起了“非暴力抵抗”的旗帜。
他号召久被歧视的黑人群众说:“我们要抵抗,因为自由从来不靠恩赐获得。有权有势的欺压者从不会自动把自由奉献给受压者。权利和机会,必须通过一些人的牺牲和受难才能得到。”但是,“仇恨产生仇恨,暴力产生暴力我们要用爱的力量,去对付恨的势力。我们的目标,绝不是击败或羞辱白人,正相反,我们要赢得他们的友谊和理解。”
在1968年4月4日,金被詹姆斯﹒厄尔﹒雷用一架自动步枪击杀。虽然那一年他倒下了,但是I HAVE A DREAM—— “我有一个梦想”的这句话却真正站了起来,不仅是在美国人民心中站了起来,更是在全世界人民心中站了起来。
在他做最后一次演讲时,他已经预感到了自己的命运,因为在他来孟菲斯之前已经收到了各种各样的死亡恐吓。但是他用行动作出了回答。他说,“不要问我帮了别人自己会有什么后果,而要问‘如果我不帮助别人,别人会有什么后果’”。
Martin Luther King, Jr., delivered the speech on August 28, 1963, to more than 200,000 people gathered during a huge demonstration before the Lincoln Memorial in Washington D.C. Called the “March on Washington”, the demonstration was organized on the 100th anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation to call attention to the wrongs suffered by African Americans and to push for federal legislation to bring about change.
Background
1.Racial Discrimination:“considering one human less than another because of his/her race”.
Before the civil rights movement of the 1950's and 1960's, racial discrimination was deeply imbedded in American society. The reality of life for the great majority of African Americans meant that they lived with gross inequities in housing, employment, education, medical services, and public accommodations. Often they were denied the right to vote and faced great injustices within the legal system.
2. Segregation : “total separation of races”
Segregation was a way of life. Most urban blacks, particularly in the South, lived in isolated tenements because white landlords refused to let them rent.
Blacks had little access to "good" jobs, finding work mainly in positions of service to white employers.
Black children attended separate, inferior schools. The result of being denied both employment and educational opportunities was that the great majority of African American families lived in poverty, with nearly 75% earning less than $3,000 a year in 1950.
In addition, Southern blacks were denied admittance to such public facilities as hospitals, restaurants, theaters, motels, and parks.
Blacks were even denied the use of public restrooms and drinking fountains marked with "For Whites Only" signs.
When separate public accommodations for blacks were provided, they were usually inferior in quality and poorly maintained. At establishments in which blacks and whites had to share the same facilities, blacks were relegated by law to the back of buses and trains and to the balconies of movies houses and courtrooms.
Worse, many African Americans were even denied the right to participate in America's political process. They were kept from voting by state laws, polltaxes, reading tests, and even beatings by local police. Unlawful acts of violence against blacks, such as those perpetrated by the Ku Klux Klan, were ignored by the much of Southern society, and African Americans could expect little help from the judicial system. In fact, instances of police intimidation and brutality were all too common.
3. Slow Change
Change came slowly. Embittered Southern whites carried distrust learned during the years of Reconstruction following the Civil War. However, in the late 1940's following World War II (when America had fought for freedom and democracy abroad and therefore felt compelled to make good on these promises at home), the federal government began to pass laws against racial discrimination. The United States military was integrated for the first time, and new laws and court rulings prohibited segregation in schools, government buildings, and public transportation.
However, many of these laws met with bitter opposition in the South or were simply ignored. When members of the African American community tried to break through old barriers, they were often threatened or beaten and, in some cases, killed. Likewise, black homes and churches were sometimes burned or bombed.
It was within this atmosphere that Martin Luther King, Jr.,
rose as a prominent leader in the civil rights movement. The son of a Baptist minister who was himself ordained, he was inspired by both Christian ideals and
India's Mohandas K. Gandhi's philosophies of nonviolent resistance to peaceably deal with injustice.
King first came into the national spotlight when he organized the Montgomery, Alabama bus boycott----during which time he was jailed, his home burned, and his life threatened. The result, however, was the mandate from the Supreme Court outlawing segregation on public transportation, and King emerged as a respected leader and the voice of nonviolent protest. He led marches, sit-ins, demonstrations, and black voter-registration drives throughout the South until his assassination in 1968 in Memphis, Tennessee.
In 1964 King was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his work in the civil rights movement. Both Americans and the international community recognized King's contributions in overcoming civil rights abuses without allowing the struggle to erupt into a blood bath. It was King's leadership that held the movement together with a dedication to nonviolent change. Many believe that King's skillful guidance and powerful oratory skills kept the South out of a second civil war, this time between the races. King led the civil rights movement to meet each act of violence, attack, murder, or slander with a forgiving heart, a working hand, and a hopeful dream for the future.
This speech, "I Have a Dream...", which has become a symbol of the civil rights movement, was written more than 30 years ago as America struggled with the problems of how to create racial equality for all of her citizens.

马丁路德是否删去雅各书和启示录
马丁路德没有删去雅各书和启示录。马丁路德是16世纪欧洲宗教改革家,他对于因信称义的理解和雅各书的关联需要放在当时的语境中具体分析。路德并不是简单否定或者抛弃了圣经中的这部分内容,而是对其进行了新的阐释和理解。此外,除了在因信称义的理解上存在差异,路德和雅各书的观点在其他方面也有所不同...
马丁,路得提出的理论
马丁,路得提出的理论是因信称义。“因信称义”是由马丁·路德提出的,区别于“行为称义”。这里的“称义”本是指审判时由法官宣布胜诉,不是说被人称赞有“义气”。而世间最高、最权威的审判是来自神灵的,所以“称义”就是说被神承认并接纳。因信称义就是说只要你是真信,全心全意的按照神...
