"I have a dream that one day this world will be free of prejudice." - What is this poem, and who wrote it? HELP!

from Valerie Pechaccek (valeriepechacek@yahoo.com)
One of my students turned this in as HER work. It sounds VERY familiar to me, but I can't put my finger on who wrote it! Please help!

"I have a dream that one day this world will be rid of prejudice. That people will see beyond one's color and appearance into a wonderful and caring human being. That a person will not undergo any physical changes just to release themselves from the discrimination of their peers, But instead give themselves a healthier image of who they are, and what they can become. That people would be more considerate and thoughtful when stating comments, And reflect the feelings of others upon themselves."

It goes on and on...

Thanks! Valerie
