To vote. To speak out. To stand up for others, especially the weak, especially the vulnerable, knowing that each of us is only here because somebody, somewhere, stood up for us.

這些聲音告訴我們，每個人的身份，無論黑人還是白人，無論亞裔還是拉丁裔，無論性取向如何，無論是移民還是土生土長的美國人，無論是民主黨還是共和黨，我們首先都是美國人，并且有著共同的信念。
Voices Dr. King believed would have the final word voices of unarmed truth and unconditional love.

And they're out there, those voices. They don't get a lot of attention, they don't seek a lot of fancies, but they are busy doing the work this country needs doing.
這些人，這些聲音一直都在。寂靜無聲，不求關注，但卻一直在為這個國家奔忙。
I see them everywhere I travel in this incredible country of ours. I see you. The American people. And in your daily acts of citizenship I see our future unfolding.
在美國這片熱土上，我所到之處都能看到這么一群美國人的身影。我看到了你們所有人。美國人民。我在你們以公民身份進行的日常活動中看見了我們的未來正在展開。
I see it in the worker on the assembly line who clocked extra shifts to keep his company open, and the boss who pays him higher wages instead of laying him off.
