Luther King avait un rêve. Aujourd’hui, nous pouvons avoir un espoir. Hier la majorité des citoyens américains a estimé que la couleur de peau de Barak Obama revêt moins d’importance que sa capacité à changer le pays, pour l’installer au poste suprême de la Présidence des Etats Unis d’Amérique.
Reviennent en moi ces paroles : "(...) Until the colour of a man skin / Is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes / Me say war (...)" Marley, War citant Haile Selassie I
"What life has taught me I would like to share withThose who want to learn...Until the philosophy which holds one race superior, and another inferior,is finally and permanently discredited and abandoned.That until there are no longer first class and second class citizen of any nation,until the colour of a man skin is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes.That until the basic human rights are equally guaranteed to allwithout regard to race.That until that day the dream of lasting peace, world citizenship and the rule of international moralitywill remain in but a fleeting illusion,to be persued, but never attained.And until the ignoble and unhappy regime that now hold our brothers in Angola, in Mozambique, South Africa. Sub-human bondage have been toppled, utterly destroyed.And until that day the African continent will not know peace.We Africans will fight, we find it necessaryand we know we shall win.As we are confident in the victory of good over evil.Good over evil." Discours de Haile Selassie I à l’ONU
