摘要
This article parallels Martin Luther King Jr.'s dream for civil, economic, and racial equality in the USA with Julius K. Nyerere's unrelenting liberation struggle for the emancipation of Southern Africa from colonial shackles. I write this article fully cognizant of King's belief that what united the minority and colonial peoples of America, African, and Asia was the struggle to overcome the legacy of colonialism and racial injustice. I therefore argue that King's dream was a shared dream, which I analyze through the prism of liberation theology.
