I Have A Dream* Poem by Dr. Ahmed Gumaa Siddiek

I have a dream that you no more rate me
with the color of my skin
And that you will not
Judge me in term of kith and kin
And that my pigmentation
Will no longer be the mark of my nation
or intonation
or determine my social situation
And that the color of my eye
Is no more a sign of any indication
And that the touch of my hair
Won't count for race categorization
'I have a dream that all children of the nation**
Won't be judged by the color of the skin
But by the content of education'
* The title and the poem are reference to a Speech by Martin Luther King at the
'March on Washington' in 1963
