He knew. And, when he says “but it really doesn’t matter to me now, because I’ve been to the mountaintop,” it’s torn me up every time. He was at peace, his work was done. He knew.

I remember being there during his speech. I was just 16 years old. I vividly remember that look on his face when he gave that speech. When he finished he almost collapsed to the point where his aides had to assist him to his seat. I do believe that he saw his own death. On the day when he was shot, my family and I were on our way back to New York. It came over the car radio that he had been assassinated. Dad couldn't drive us back home. So I took the wheel and drove us back to New York City. The riots that we had to drive pass were extremely frightening and dangerous. I remember dad saying "FOR US. THE HANDS OF TIME HAS BEEN TURNED BACK TO THE DAYS OF THE PLANTATIONS."

I am a 53 years old white English guy and everytime I watch/listen to this I cry. Look at Dr King's eyes and face, that's not acting, pretence or just speaking for effect, it's raw emotion and total sincerity. I believe he knew his work was done and that God wanted him to ascend, when he says God has taken him to the mountain top to see the promised land he was speaking truthfully. And he knew why God had done that, to let him see that his work had helped his people to get there but that he wouldn't see it in this world. He was conflicted, he knew his time was ending and accepted it but was also saddened. Indescribably powerful and moving. The world desperately needs people like Dr King today.

Instead, he just decided to be the better person and meet hate with love and violence with peace. This speech was definitely powerful, not just because of his fate the following day but it also gave people hope for a better future where they will reach the Promised Land. God bless you, Dr. King. We love and miss you.♥

MLK devoted his life to fighting the system that kept us oppressed and in subhuman conditions, let us not forget him and how far we've come and how much further we must go to fulfill his dream. Let us change our ways of thinking and the let us unite, for it is in unity there is strength. We need to stop comparing who has what and stop the " crabs in a barrel mentality"

When I watch this, I see a regular guy who is worried and a bit scared (despite his words), but determined to send a message to his enemies and give his followers encouragement. A guy who knows something bad is going to happen to him, but is determined to show a brave face to the people who need him to be strong. I think this speech is an excellent example of someone whose dedication, commitment, and faith were being tested to the limit, and even though they are scared, they still do what needs to be done.

This is true. If he said it, it’s true. And we will, AS A PEOPLE, get to the promised land.

The things we impress upon during influencial opportunities...can make a wave.

Also, don't be offended when the children you've neglected to rear and/or give the time of day that regardless of your clearly lacking conscience, physically made and are aware of their existence, therefore have a responsibility to be the parent, to the child. This is not optional. When those statistically scary numbers of children who were neglected of a father figure, later make generalizing statements that they "hate" men, perhaps question what caused them to feel that way instead of becoming the victim in a situation where you shirked your responsibilities, and have caused lifelong attachment and relationship issues with your own children, who have had no experience with a loving present father figure. Dr. King from all I've seen and heard was an absolutely amazing father to his children, be like him. We know who's who. Parenthood is an obligation, and one you will wish you had met with joy and strove only to excell at, if one is to ever be in midst of the promised Land with him. Edit: I realize the username is a female name, but I also realize that the trend of jokingly saying we hate men also became another's personal attack and persecution complex, despite it basically being directed at our experiences with males, specifically our deadbeat father's, and the feeling of being unloved and unwanted, by them, is impressively taken personally by completely childless, and wonderful Men who don't have any comprehension of nuance. It's crazy we said that but we're also here in the comment section of a Dr King video discussing how much we love him, too. It's almost as if things are actually complex and no situation is ever Black or White. Fairly certain Dr. King would be most disapproving of deadbeat fathers, for what it's worth.

i deflate & feel it every time i see the look on his face & the way he says, "But it really doesn't matter with me now" & "I might not get there with you" that's selfless...& you can tell he knows his time was up

What a speaker ! He knew how to deliver a speech that would live on, even after his death. His timing, pausing, then an emotionally charged delivery, he stops and leaves the stage - that's the way to do it !

I am simply a man (yes a white man) who has come to this video today on MLK day to show my respect to a very great man (yes a black man). There are great men in all of us, i challenge every one of you to be that great man today, tomorrow, the next day and to look upon your brothers and sisters not as black and white, but as a people.

Hey white man. I'm a black woman. If you felt so bad about Martin Luther King's death, you can tell the government to cut a check for my people. That speech Dr King made about the government giving away land to white folks when it was my ancestors' land in the first place. You can do that for Martin Luther King.

But what ever works for you, I will not say anything negative about because your opinions are just as important as mine.

So very sincere, so human. 1.37 - 40 mins gives me a shiver. It’s so interesting to watch this as an older man. Turn your brightness up to full and watch this is dark room. Look at those eyes of sincerity.
