"I have a dream, that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. I have a dream today!"
Who said it?
How can you relate it to the story "Richard and the Library Card" I read to you last week?

vnhrMiss Ale,
I know that the one who said thsi was Martin Luther King Jr. in a very important speech he made. I think he is a very important hero as we were working today in class, and he realy was an important part of history, because he changed in a way what people thought. And in a way he also stoped racism in USA, but without any wars, just in a kind and pasific way, wanting to show the point that it dosen´t care the colour of your skin, or what is your religion, what it realy cares is to see what the person´s heard is. If you´re a good person it doesen´t have to care the olour of your skin. I learned all this last year, they also teached me that one day he said to the people who followed him, that maybe someone will killed him and they all have to continue fighting in a good way, and one day there won´t be any more racism in the world. He was a great leader and a great herp. But actually one night they killed him, and lots of people cried, because he was a vey kind and important person. Thanks to him, now theres not such racism in the world(spetialy in USA) as it was used to be.
See you,

Miss Alle,
The person that said this was martin Luther. It is connected to the story because Richard was a boy that had black coloured skin. Everybody looked at him as if he were strange. It tells you that White skinned people and Black skinned people have the same rights and thay are the same. Not one of them are different. No matter how you look or what coloured skin you have we will always be the same and have the same rights. The stroy is a little about discrimination, and racism.
I really liked the story.

Dear Miss Ale: I don´t really know who said this very very good words, I think it might be Martin Lutherking of whom we talked today.
i think that this words are related to the story you read to us the week before because of the DISCRIMINATION thre was/is on the world and that he wanted a better future for all of the people who were/are treated very badly and can´t have the same rights that the other coulored people had.i think that it is also related, maybe, to the man who suffered this consecuenses during those terrible years in USA, maybe the author thought about this very well know Martin Lutherking and how important he was and what he did to be so loved and recognised, and made one of the examples of the things that coulored people suffered and wrote this very good story for the people to remember how were things before and how much better are now at this days.
I think it is a very good speach because he was able to expres himself clearly and show people how he thought this none-sense problem was destroing the rights of each one of the people who lived at those hard years in USA and how much he wished the future to be better and to get people have the same right as anyone else, and also so that his kids will have a better future and the same rights. This is one of the persons I most addmire, not only of the courage he had, because he showed pepople that they were very happy no matter the color his skin was, I think he is one of the heroes we should remember the most because he was able to speak for his rights and fight(in a peacefull way)for this problem to end as faster as possible.
i am sure that many people got in his path and tried to stop him of what he was doing, but he was determined and kept on running jumping all the obstacles he had in his way, and got to stop descrimination at USA, and sometimes we are not as der¡termined as how he was.
MISS ALE I LOVED THIS WORDS!!!!!!!!
PLEASE INCLLUDE MORE OF THIS!!!!!!!
BYE BYE...

I honstly don't know who said this, but I know that you said something about a king who wanted all of us to be treated the same way, I can't remember his name right now. Well, I think it is very related to the story of Richard and the Library card. Poor, Richard, at that times no one ever respected the black people they way they had to be treated. By saying " the way they had to be treated" i mean that we should all of us, it could be white, black, also different religion, or if someone has a mental problem or having something different to the other one, we should all of us respect each other the same, and if som eone has a problem, we don't have to ignore that person, we have to help, and like this we can make a better world. The story of Richard is about racism, in this case they only have a different skin colour! we should look at a black person with discrimination!! This problem is place in United States, there are many white people, and also many black people. The story of Richard, shouldn't be happening any more. So the answer to your question is YES, we can relate it to the Story of Richard and The Library card.
See you soon....

Miss Ale,
I really dont know who said this. But probably it was a black-coloured skin person. I really do not like people who descriminate black people. I mean, I really think they have NOTHING AT ALL different from us, exept their skin colour. Black people have to be respected amd we have to be respected too. Actually, everybody should respect one another... I think it maybye is a sentece from the book you read to us last week. The first thing that came to my mind when I started thinking of who it could be was (maybye) Richard`s mother. It could really be her... Sometimes I really wish to have a really good friend who is black- coloured skin and treat him or her really nicely and get along really well. (That would make me feel better in some sort of way. (Hope you liked my way of thinking)...
See you,

Hi miss ale!
My mother told me that who wrote this was Martin Luder King Junior. He was a black man that diddnt think as the racists, and defended civil rights. (I think that you say it that way) I think that he was a real hero! I can relate this with the story you read to us, becaue it is about racism, and in the story the black people couldnt rent books in the library, and I think that that is very wrong. Because, no matter if the skin is a different colour, or you are a different religion, you are still people and they have to treat them as such. Imagine that you have to go to live to a place where all black people live, like Africa, suppose, and they treat you like slaves, and they dont let you rent books, or even to enter some places!! I think that is amazingly unfair! It is very wrong!! I would say this words touched my heart, ( to say it some way) and I think they are beautiful, and on top of everything, true. I liked a lot the part that says: "They will not be judged by the colour of their skin, but by the content of their character". They are beautiful. The story I liked it a lot, and it was what some people do, when they see a black man walking down the street, they get back as if it was an alien. One time, in the newspaper, there was a note, that the title was : "2 personas y un colombiano". That really got my attention, because they said it as if the Colombian wasnt a person!! I know that maybe they werent with that intention, maybe they only wanted to tell the the other person was a Colombian, but they made it look that way all the same!! well miss ale, I am going to have dinner
see you tomorrow!!

I think this can relate to the story by connecting the discrimination of Richard. He couldnt read because of DISCRIMINATION.that is RACISM because people are judged because of how they look. This maybe can relate to the poem, because it says that someone dreams of a world where there will not be any discrimination of people. This means that everyone has the same rights, blacks or whites, or any colour you are. I think the poem and the book relates because they talk about the same things, about rights of people. A dream that everyone can be like one, with same rights and no one is judge by the way they look. It is not fair that they judge youfor what you look. For example in the story the thing of the library, and to get jobs. only because you were white you could get better jobs and quicker. I think racism is a big problem know in the world. Its like the poem, because the importain things of a person are not if they have power or not, like black and white, or if they are nice or uggly, the importain is inside, what you feel. If you are of any colour of skin you can be a very nice person, care for others and be nice to everyone, including the people that arenot your race. I really dont understand all the people that have problems with other that have different SKIN COLOUR. I think thats very uggly, its like saying only because I have blond hair you cant go inside the lilbrary because you have another colour of hair. Its just how you look from the outside. That doesnt really matter. I dont think that the people that have problem with racism understand that. They only think of theirselves, they live like in their own world, with their mind closed on THEIRSELVES. THAT is the people that have problem with racism. The ones that doesnt care for otherss, only for themselves and thats it. I think thats totally out of their mindss. I think that people should think about it and think if it is really importaint how you look. I think the world must find a way to live with others, like the way they look or not. I really think this is a very big problem in places all over the world. Maybe someday people will realise how people are suffering because of their fault. I think that if everyone thinks how it would be for the other person, you can finally understand. You can imagine to be in the place of the other person. nobody is different, we are all the same, no matter how we look.
Oh gosh, I finally said all I have to say.
see you soon

Hello ,
This was said by Marthn Luthein that King JR .He said it beause in that days white people where like the better people. There the black people where poor and also they where slaves.
I can related this to the story of the boys who loved reading is that there the litlle boy was slave and worked for white people. In the book there are examples of white men being like the kings. One is the one that he couldt take books from the library and all the people when he entered to the library . Marthin Luther King was a heroe . He was a very important man for all the world specially for usa .
Also in art we are doing a work in coexistance. People like Marthim Luther JR are not seen all days. He with hes bravoury has done the racism less. I can not say it has dissapeard because in some contries it is still going on. I can imagine all the problems that would have dissapeard if we woeld have someone like him now in this days.But not only the raism (wich has actually very little problbut also the wars and the discrimination.
Well goodbye.

Miss Ale,
The person who said it was Martin Luther Jr. it was an important speach beacause he was talking about stoping racism in all the world because really they are the same people but of a different kind of colour skin. What it has about the story of "Richard and The Libary Card" is that white people didn't want to let black people be in the libary because they thought they could do something bad or kill some one or something of the style, but really that wasn't true because black people have the same rights such as white people. Really it doesn't care how you are in the outside what cares is the inside and how do you treat people because black people can be as good kind and all those things like white people.
See You,

MIss Ale:
I really don't know who said those words but I'm sure it was a king because I don't know when you had told us something of a kind and descrimanation. But when i thought what could i relate this with the story is that what all the people see is the outside but we have to look the onside because he could be a skin black person but you don't know if he is a bad person. And that this if the person is diffrent he is a stanger but that is not right. I know people that say jokes about black people and that is DESCRIMINATING what I hate. And in the story "Richard and the Library Card. That only if he was black he surely didn't know how to read so they didn't let him in and also in this poem or sentence it says that we don't have to judge to white people or black people. Also ALe I think that black people are poor and we only laugh at them or we judge them when we had to help them or educate them. Like if we were in that position we would like that people could help us..

Miss Ale:
I think people that judge other peple only because of their colour are very wrong. We are all human beigns that should be respectful and be respected by others!!! I think that this speech is very conected to the book because it talks about a coloured man that loved books but couldnt aford one only because he was discreminated because of his colour. well see you

Miss Ale,
The one who said it was Martin Luther King Jr. when he was fighting discrimination in the USA. I think he is one of my heroes because when I go to the United States I see all the white and the black people coexist with each other. Also that this man did not use violence to stop the racism, he talked, and in a very positive way. Without hurting nor insulting a person. I think we could relate it to the story that you read to us because in the times when Richard lived there was discrimination. And that Martin Luther King saw all this discrimination to the black people and started to dream with a better world. I think that mabye he had read this book. Martin Luther King mabye inspired the author to write this book to show how they lived in the USA in those days of racism and discrimination.
I LOVE DOING THIS AND REFLECTING.
THANKS FOR THIS LOVELY MOMENT I PASSED WITH MISELF.

Hi there!
I haven´t blogged for a long time so today will be my day for blogging. I didn´t know who said this so I looked for it in internet and it said that Martin Luther King said it. That is one of the mans that were on the find someone who. What he says is very nice because sometime ago and it is still now in some countries that the people were judged by the colour of their skin. If you were black you were treated as a slave. People can´t be judged by the colour of their skin, they have to be judged for what they are inside, what kind of person they are but not be judged for what they look like. When he says my four little children he is reffering to his sons? I think that you can look bad but maybe your appearance doesn´t show who you really are. What shows who you are is invisible to the eyes. I can relate what Martin Luther King said to the story "Richard and the Library Card" because in that story Richard was treated badly and he couldn´t borrow books from the library because of the colour of his sking. The white people thought that black people couldn´t read, but they were wrong. Richard was helped by someone in the end that lends him his library card and tells him to tell the lady at the counter that they were for him although then Richard would read them. Richard loved reading and the truth is that nobody can tell him what to do with the things he likes, nobody can private him for reading a book. I think that it is a story that leaves us a message " People can´t be judged by the colour of their skin.
See you,

Dear Miss Ale:
In art we are seeing some projects about coexistence and there were some images that were similar to yours. They talked about the racism, religion and differences about each other. The racism was used more in the United States and groups of terrorists killed them. For me is very bad to do things like that because they are people, normal people with difficulties, other tipe of skin but it doesn't matter we are always gonna be the same. We are humans and I think that there are really wrong. We cannot live thinkig about differising other people, just be yourself. If other people look at you with a strange face it doesn't matter act normal. I think that the nazis are very wrong. And also some wars are because of thins RAZISM

Hello Ale I think that the person who said that was a hero and his name was Martin Luther King. That was the person that made United States see that there are no differences between black and white people. He made a big change.
Ramiro T
Martin Luther said this motivating frase. He was a important hero because he was determined to end some discrimination. Also he was a leader in the moment of the American Civil Rights. He recived a novel price for this and he was the youngest person to recive it.
It is conected to the story because it is all a idea of what rasim is and means and how you have to put in someones place and help the much you can as in the story, they lend the card for going to the libary. He wants to give the message that his four children could live in a place without racism and with RIGHTS of everything they want, WITH FREEDOM.
So we can learn that we can be with everyone and not be descriminated for example of the colour of the skin or everything it could be RASISM. I really admired Martin Luther, for all his courage and he was determined to stop RASISM.

Miss ale,
this is a very true paragraph. I think people should not discriminate people only for what they see on the outside but also in the inside.
well
see you,
