  • Where's your mercy GOD ? Why can you give us another MLK or another prophet who can lead us ...PLEASE PLEASE !!!

  • @CRRockanimal BEAUTIFUL BEYOND WORDS--WE HAVE HOPE OF THAT CHANCE--IT IS A NEW DREAM THAT HAS ARISEN OUT OF THE ASHES OF MLK'S DREAM--IT IS THE CONSCIOUSNESS OF A GENERATION THAT WANTS TO SHARE THE EARTH'S RESOURCES AMONGST ALL THE WORLD'S PEOPLE --ELEVATING MANKIND- ALL MEN CREATED EQUAL.

  • A bit of trivia.The white man standing on the podium was an Australian who became life long friends with the two men giving the 'black power' salute.

  • Martin Luther King is in heaven sitting next to the Lord and the Lord sits next to God our Father, I believe. :)

  • *but

  • He is a American Hero, He will live on forever, R.I.P true king! he may be gone, By he still has his pride. We love you! thank you for fighting for what you believed!

    U2, makes me proud to be part Irish! ^ ^

    so-cal

  • simply amazing and inspirational!!!

  • i love and respectthis man

  • @ shiramo: THANK YOU for this beautiful work!!! The song and the images work so well together! ART at its finest and a amazing way to honor the VISION of Dr. King's blessed message of HOPE of what this country CAN BE! I THANK YOU.

  • I love this video. :)

  • Beautiful video for a beautiful blessed man. He will be forever missed. He knew his days were numbered and that was not important to him..only Justice, Equality, Unity, and an end to hate and racisim was his goal. God bless MLK forever. Thank you for this beautiful memorial video. God bless <3

  • The negative remarks from those who thrive on hate do not even deserve any response ! Yet I do love the individuals who chose to hate, hoping that someday that their hearts are changed! I really feel sorry for them. God bless all mankind!

  • @rthing Why don't people like you ever die in plane crashes?

  • @rthing You are a disgrace!

  • @rthing I heard a Hitler speech about 45 minutes ago and went elsewhere. HE had NO REAL poltical struggles, only his own daddy issues. His stepfather was Jewish and did not treat his mother well, so he took it out on SIX MILLION innocent souls... I wish that you would get a clue and realize that we are all ONE!!! Oh, and by the way, get a mitochondrial DNA test done and you will see that even YOU come from MOTHER AFRICA!!! The racism you practice comes from your own fear of others.

  • @terminalva But today, the state of Israel is bulldozing homes, and tearing families apart. Just because this is not on the news does not mean people are not aware of this injustice. It is unjust

  • @terminalva jews arent innocent.other than that yeah...

  • This was a challenging time in our nation, one we should never forget. And I thank him for what he did for our country. For all people. Men, women, children, elderly, handicap, and beyond.

  • I love your video. I don't think there is anything wrong with adding U2 to a video about MLK. He was born in the name of love. 

  • @DicksonsVixen

    I could be wrong, but I believe U2 or Bono wrote this song about Martin Luther King Jr.

  • @mobopolo

    You are correct. I was just defending the video. :) Somebody commented that it was wrong to add this song to this video because it took away from its originality or something like that.

  • This is absolutely beautiful. It gave me chills. Thank you for sharing. Peace and love, peace and love.

  • martin luther king inspired me i love him

  • What an unfortunate comment. I can't imagine the joy and compassion you felt putting this together. Good for you and shame on the haters.

  • Pity he was religious, but his idea was ok love and freedom for all!

  • @RMPify why was it a pity that he was religious? obviously it contributed to making him a better person. there is nothing wrong with being religious as long as your not hurting others and your not trying to impose your religion on others.. part of having freedom means having freedom to practice a certain religion if you feel in your heart to do so.. religious or not.. there was nothing pitiful about this man.. freedom for all !!!

  • @thelifeuwant Why ask a question if you know the answer?

  • @RMPify it was a rhetorical question to make a point to you.. but I guess you didn't get it huh?

    let me make things simple for you to understand: I don't believe that it was a bad thing that he was religious, or that he believed in God.. let people believe what they want to as long as they respect and treat others with dignity and kindness.. 

  • one more in the name of LOVE....

  • he is my hero and source of inspiration

  • cool song for MLK

  • BRING  BACK LYNCHING for unruly blacks !!

  • @KingsleyEnnis1  your a fucking scumbag how about for unruly whites jackass

  • @KingsleyEnnis1 You go first, asshole, and let us know what it's like.

  • Martin Luther King God Bless you!

  • this is riDONQ. (ridonculous...as in totally awesome).

  • By the way i forgot to say i think it does make a good tribute, would the man look down on this no, never he wanted to build people up not tear them down.

  • Great job! U2 and MLKjr , what could be more inspiring!

    Thank you for making this tribute. Today of all days, the 47th anniversary of his I Have A Dream speech at the Lincoln Mem in DC Glenn Beck and his zombie followers are staging a protest to restore honor to America. WHAT A JOKE. He actually had the nerve to call President Obama a racist. How disgraceful and how shameful. We must fight the hate and ignorance with LOVE as much as this makes me want to scream.

  • BEST NIGGER EVER. :)

  • @ZEROEVILDARKCOOL thank God he sent his Son to expose and destroy the devil's work. Consider yourself served.

  • @ZEROEVILDARKCOOL You know Africa had a great civilistions when your ancesters were still in caves so whats with the "Nigger comment" are you some kind throwback to your cave dwelling ancesters?

    I am sick to death with people like you, we all came out of the same tree, do you really think the colour of a mans skin makes any difference?

  • Can't we all get along This is why there is so many WARS in this WORLD!! To bad so much haterid

  • It's sad many people don't know this song was written entirely about MLK, it was a U2 tribute song. Listen closely

    "Early Morning, April 4, Shot rings out in the Memphis sky, Free at last, they took your life, they could not take your pride "

  • again and again and again I come back to this video....perfect choice of song. That a white Irish band was touched to the point where they wrote this song...speaks loudly for the power of the message and the strength of the messenger.

  • EL MEJOR

  • I will never understand because exist the racism... great song all times..thanks MLK.

  • beautifull

  • PASTOR COM O CARATER DESTE , HOJE EM DIA É MUITO DIFICIL, POIS A MAIORIA QUE ESTÃO NA MIDIA O COMPROMISSO DELES É COM  O DINHEIRO DOS MEMBROS E NÃO COM AS ALMAS DOS MEMBROS POREM O DR: MARTIN ,TINHA AMOR PELAS ALMAS LUTOU ATE A MORTE EM PROL DA LIBERDADE DO POVO NEGROS DO ESTADOS UNIDOS MORREU COMO UM LIDER EM DEFESA DO POVO AMEM

  • Very nice tribute to a remarkable and special man!!

  • Thank you Jesus for MLK , one of my heros. Thank you for his spirit,his love,his soul . Thank you for him carrying and sharing the embodiment of who You are.

  • Thank You!

  • i dont know what the fuck you tube ee bodi in my shit but he in heavin for it!!!!!!!! all enemies of my be gone

  • a great man with a beautiful dream that has changed me and america for the better God Bless MLK I love this world and my country ...Welcome to America ,all races and kinds please lets all join hands in memory of this GREAT KING of hope and peace :) Love you MLK!

  • Thank you for this wonderful video! Dr. King would be in his early 80's today had he lived, and I wonder what he would have to say about the good and bad that we've become. One thing is clear, though. He gave his life in the name of equality and justice, and in honor of our ever-enduring drive to become a more perfect Union. To me MLK is one of the great giants of American history, and this tribute you've made to honor him is much deserved and very moving...Great job!

  • Outstanding!

  • I keep coming back to this piece again and again and again...a great song and a wonderful tribute.

  • really great job shiramo! MLK was a great man... Pride by U2 is a pretty song... I think God (not God of x or y religion, but God of the Bible) always inspire us to love each others, if we hear him all in this world would be very diferent... greetings to all of you...

  • To be in opposition to Dr. King's ideas is to be in opposition of America

  • excellent, and outstanding

  • go up to your address bar, put the letter "Q" between the words you and tube, then press enter or click go

  • ooh great job i lovehow this video was edited, and i love this song so much and martin luther king was a beautiful man

  • Lovely Tribute!! ******

  • The only thing 'pure' about YOUR comment is your unfulfilled hate and lack of basic grammar. Do me a favor and make a tribute to someone special in your life, maybe a parent who you obviously did not learn anything from, and send it to me. I want to see you use one ounce of creativity to honor and celebrate someone in your life. You wasted a lot of energy writing a lame comment...next time think about how you can use that energy positively or constructively. YOU'RE fired.

  • @shiramo - Very nice slideshow! Keep up the good work.

    By the way, I clicked on 'navigator274's link to see what he's uploaded and I got this message: "This channel is no longer available because the user closed their account." -- Don'tcha love it?

  • @shiramo I don't agree w/ navigator's comment. But it's an artistic call, though I get the impression navigator is unaware U2 wrote that song in honor of Dr. King. You did a wonderful job w/ your tribute. Someone once said words represent ideas, music represents emotion & when the 2 are combined it's a beautiful thing.

    However, your response to navigator's criticism, misplaced though it was, may be a little over the top. Anyone who can create such beauty can respond more positively.

  • @shiramo VERY NICE VIDEO AND CREATIVE , M.L.K. CAME WITH LOVE TILL THE VERY END. SO HE DID COME IN THE NAME OF LOVE HE WANTED EVERYONE TO LOVE EACH OTHER. AND WELL DONE IN RESPONDING TO THE HATERS...<3

  • @navigator2974 It does not matter what they do to this the message comes through loud and clear, this mans words are eternal, these are words of hope.

  • @navigator2974

    Navigator, I agree.

  • @navigator2974 do you even know what Pride is about?

    It's about MLK!

    condsider yourself stupified

  • @navigator2974 Do you know this song is actually written about MLK Jr. "Early morning, April 4th, Shots ring out in the Memphis sky" That's about his assassination.

  • @navigator2974 This song was written specifically FOR and to honor MLK. Try listening to the lyrics and maybe do some research before you make negative comments. 

  • @navigator2974 do you not realise.... that song was written about Martin Luther King.

    I thought the tribute was fitting and honourable. Shame you couldnt feel it.

  • @navigator2974 O.o owned..

  • @rthing FUCK YOU, ITS PEOPLE LIKE YOU WHO END UP CAUSING UNHAPPINESS! YOU ARE JUST JEALOUS THAT YOU ARENT SOMEONE WHO CAN CHANGE THE WORLD WITH A BRILLIANT MIND AND COURAGEOUS HEART! SO YOU KNOW WHAT, SUCK IT BITCH! I LOVE MLK YOU WANT HITLER TO SKIN ME TOO?!? FUCK YOU

  • @rthing You're a disgrace to humanity. Not just white people, YouTube users, or just those watching this (fantastic) video...  You're a disgrace to the entire human race, of which there is one. Human beings.

    I don't wish you ill. I just hope you can someday open your eyes to see the truth about the beauty of all humanity on this planet.

  • The video is brilliant Shiramo.The guitar players sounds like a true technician.

  • The founding fathers were Free Masons. They accepted all religions are from God. The Qur'an says the same that all religions are from God,but only the Koran says that all men are created equal, so then Christianity is to be nourished by the Qur'an. Civil rights was a waste of time for if MLK accepted the Qur'an then we would have not only brotherly love, but world peace. God is invisible, he is not a man, that is a lie, Romans 3:4,7, and what follows is a lie, Civil rights is also a lie.

  • This is really cool, thanks for making it!

  • This is a truly wonderful tribute! Thank you.

  • Great video. The only thing that doesn't seem to fit are the images of Malcom X and the black power salute which were repudiations of Dr. King's belief in non-violent resistance based on love seeking reconciliation.

  • This video reminded me that Martin Luther King was a Christian, and his actions where develop from the Bible truth. Thank you God for using your servant to benefit the many.

  • I come back to this time and time again because it's the best use of the song I've ever seen...tied into Dr. King's words.

  • I do love this Picture. This is the children of our time.

  • Martin Luther father of black liberty... father of love since 1960s, father of brother and sister black and whiter...Son of God OUr Father, .. There is no peace in love love is peace forever... Ghandy

  • WHY!? WHY is it EVERY God Damn Time that brilliant words are spoken that it must be "God speaking through him" that is COMPLETE bullshit.

    He is a BRILLIANT artist, a beautiful person and an all round fantastic person. That doesn't automatically mean a deity of some kind is speaking through him.

    zzzthaoster you are as ignorant as the next person who WILL say something stupid like this. I'm not saying there isn't a god (aethiest or not) it is unfair to give credit to "God" when U2 wrote it.

  • If U reject God now, at the end of life God will reject U....U are no body if not God who loved and made u, and still keeps U today much more than He keeps the creatures of Life...! Be wise my friend...and make a timely U-turn B4 its too late !

  • We all are different on the outside. Skin colour does not matter. Its whats in the inside that counts.

  • jugde not by one's color but one's character...damn, those are words of god's speaking thru him.

  • jacko can not die, martin also not !!!!

  • where is european marthin luhter

  • Thank you Shiramo xox

  • MLK, rest in peace...

  • mas Martin luther King necesita este mundo y menos nazis, racismo, oprision etc es lo que sobra en este mundo-

    IGUALDAD Y LIBERTAD PARA TODOS LOS SERES HUMANOS.

    EN EL NOMBRE DEL AMOR

  • LET FREEDOM RING FOR ALL GENERATIONS

  • cool song eh ! most people dont quite under stand wat its about i only do beacuse my history told us but we had 2 write as s.a about who was the most important guy in the civil rights movement i wrote martan luther king jr others chose malcom X n muhaed ali

  • This Is How Social Studies Needs To Be Tought. I will share this with other teachers.

    Thanks

    Well Done

  • Love find it's way.

  • It sucks that this video was removed. I guess LOVE is a threat to someone big enough to remove it.

  • may his killer suffer for etternity in hell for what he did to humanity!If King were alive today he would be able to see president Obama being elected.But now that i come to think about it...everything happens for a reason right??Even if we'll never find the reason or even understand it there has to be a reasonable reason for his death.Even then the myrderer will still be burned.lol

  • Your comments say that you don't understand the teachings of Dr King.

    Love those who do harm to you or try to use or despise you. Let your Light shine through in this Dreamworld

  • It's a Beautiful Day!

    Happy Inauguration Day to ALL!!!

  • What JerseyIrish said.I couldnt have put it better.God Bless.

  • :) I love this!

    We do this in social studies :)

  • he is a great person!!!!

  • he WAS... he was...

  • Il sogno di Martin Luther King è realtà.Un giorno anche il sogno di Giovanni Falcone sarà realtà,prima o poi la Sicilia realizzerà il suo sogno

  • I got tears in my eyes when I saw this.Great compilation.great song.great man...Today is Martin Luther king Day.Tomorrow.. a new beginning..

  • GOD BLESS MLK! I love that man. I love this song. I love you all my fellow human beings. God bless us all. =]

  • This is a powerful video of MLK

  • A very nice tribute to a very important part of the history of the United States of America. God Bless America and God Bless Our Next President!

  • MLK is unforgotten, he changed history. My heartfelt thanks to him. Truth is, that our Generation instead of being smarter, get's more discriminating than ever. It's forbidden to speak of white pride, but we celebrate black pride one month long. Every Nation made mistakes, some bigger than others. Point is, we all are equal. No matter what color our skin or language we speak - I wasn't brought up like that, but I teach it to my kids. It's my faith, my believe. In hope of a better future.

  • That is very true RNLUVSU2. It seems that the more we have sought to de-segregate, the more segregated we have become, keeping racial scorecards and shedding blood for blood. That is not what King and his supporters fought, bled, and died for. King fought so that what happened on Nov. 4 and what is happening tomorrow could be possible. There doesn't have to be one month to celebrate your heritage, because we're all human beings, and you can celebrate that 24/7/365.

  • Powerful video and just awesome! : )

  • Love is the only true religion and it is not a religion because it doesn't enslave you, it sets you free. Love unites ALL mankind and lends power through the Heart and moves you so profoundly that it transcends all fear, all guilt and all need to protect the ego. LOVE is the expression your spirit and freedom is her child. -Bill

  • I, sadly, think that his dream has not become true. Hopefully one day.

  • powerful video x x

  • "Well, I don´t know what is gonna happen, now. We got some difficulties out here. But it don´t matter to me, now..."

  • Martin Luther king and what he wanted to achieve was driven by the intentions of Love, Compassion and equalness.

    I knew this would succeed, because Love never fails. like he said: "Not the weak kind of Love. But the Love that is so pure, so strong that it becomes so demanding, no one Stop it."

    Just the same as with Ghandi, who had simular intentions. Once this is set out to the world, one can kill them, or do whatever. But one can't Stop it because Love never fails.

  • Please note, by the time declaring Independency, Mr. H^` tried to provoke friendship with US and even French. Unfortunately, they choose Mr. Diem. However, all of our leaders included our King, Sir Ba?o Dda.i are clever and real patriots. They all agreed on an election for the unity of our country. However, _our wish, their decision. We were victimized through the massacre of our own brothers!

    Big mistake! The potential should be invested in stabilizing, securing Peace in the region instead.

  • The people have spoken,in the hope of LOVE.

    They have voted for CHANGE. Let's HOPE President Obama will now keep FAITH with the great American public and work at the risks of life and limb,to deliver the CHANGE for the betterment of all good peoples,in the name of LOVE!

    :)

  • MLKJr would have been a great President but he was destined to be greater than that and live on as a beacon of hope dignity and rightousness.

  • May MLK Jr be in the promise land with the lord, were he belongs. He more than deserves it.

    R.I.P M.L.K.

  • This is absolutely fantastic! Thankyou very much for sharing it with us.

  • His dream was the nightmare of those who do not accept all men are equal.

    So they killed him.

    But his dream lives on.

    The Empire builders must destroy this dream to achieve their aims. For if all men are equal, how to justify war, conquest, dominion and exploitation?

  • Wish you were to be a part of this greatest moment in the history of America......

    Martin Luther .. Your Pride is still in glory and it can never ever be basked away....

    And a big thank you to Bono, for takin a greater effort to uphold the dignity of this Marvellous leader , thru your Incredible music

  • Another great man

  • Always remember.. those who crave evil, will never expose themselves, therefore can never be stopped. Let righteousness do the same. One who seeks pride, exposes himself to apply his face to the truths that were given to him by observance and claims it as his own, when in fact, it was the light within him which gave it to him. That light is truth, and his observance is enough. Give freely without any payment that of which was given to you. Be faceless, and nameless and it can never be stopped.

  • To admit one's wrongs is not a condemnation of one's personality, but should be rejoiced that you have learned something.

    We are all born naked, blind, helpless, and ignorant from infantcy, so to think you know all if a denial of the day you were born and what you were born into. It is not personal at all, just the sanity that we are all learning and must be continually taught. If we're willing to accept that Truth.

    I crave learning, I crave love, I crave forgiveness, and I crave caringness.

  • MLK could have done so much more good for humanity had he remained faceless, and nameless. You need no face with truth. You need no name with truth. You need nothing if truth is what's spoken. Let man judge by the truths in his heart. We have the power to understand that in a world where we stero type, it plays a factor in our decisons. Are you willing to let racism go, or hold on to it for the sake of being superior? I would rather truth, no matter who delivers it, so long as it reaches us all.

  • mlk never is out of style. always cool and eloquent. the sound of his voice making goosebumps and misty eyes and smiles. a saint among us for a short while. amen.

  • This is wonderful!!! Thank you for posting this.

  • when all the colors bleed into one:)

  • Thank You for this!

  • The ending is powerful

  • ONE MAN. What can I do? WHAT CAN ONE PERSON DO? LOOK WHAT O N E M A N D I D.

    i am humbled. we have a debt.

  • Never did American history where I live,how fantastic, electrifying, and magical was he?. Been researching him for last 6 months, his whole speech can never be beaten.Pity he's not here now. R.I.P. - YOU DID GOOD. X. P.S. at least I'm from the same country that this song is from!! Pride. In The Name of Love.

  • Thank God For this MAN! Thank you for this profound video.

  • five stars

  • My reading teacher said something about this in her critical voice. I looked at the lyrics, which she had put up on the wall and it seemed familar. she said to the class that u2 did the song. since I was bored just now I searched it. I have heard it before and it's very very good.

  • spine tingling

  • wonderfull video!

    I truly believe Dr King Jr was murdered because he was seen as a threat on the Governmental class that has developed. He was seen as presidential material then and I truly believe that Dr. King Jr would have been America's first black President.

  • I wish I was a stronger person watching this. I wish I was there live for his speech. I wish he was a politician today. I wish him to rest in peace - a hero to a middle class white chick 40 years later. HE DID GOOD. R.I.P. and Thank you.

  • What a role model for a child of ANY race

    Free at Last, Free at Last!!!

  • beautiful!
