Question

A world I dream where black or white,
Whatever race you be,
Will share the bounties of the earth
And every man is free,
Where wretchedness will hang its head
And joy, like a pearl,
Attends the needs of all mankind—
Of such I dream, my world!

Based on the dreams that the speaker describes, it is reasonable to infer that the speaker
is hopeful all people will experience the same freedoms he enjoys.
will do whatever is necessary to gain equality for all.
lives in a time and place where equality does not exist.
has given up the idea that one day all people will be treated the same.

Answer 1

is hopeful all people will experience the same freedoms he enjoys.

The speaker explicitly dreams and expresses hope for a world where all races "will share the bounties" and "every man is free." There is no suggestion he’s given up or plans specific actions, and the tone is hopeful rather than resigned.
