Recently, while trying to locate a short film on the DREAM ACT to show my viewers, I was having some trouble. However, I came across a wonderful site, http://adreamdeferred.org/. Immediately a smile came to me. Looking at the name of this organization, I smiled knowing that they too associated the DREAM Act with Langston Hughes' poem, A Dream Deferred. Please read the poem and take a look at the short film.
A Dream Deferred
Langston Hughes
What happens to a dream deferred?
Does it dry up
like a raisin in the sun?
Or fester like a sore--
And then run?
Does it stink like rotten meat?
Or crust and sugar over--
like a syrupy sweet?
Maybe it just sags
like a heavy load.
