Welcome to Junior English! Tonight's Assignment...

View Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" Speech in its entirety on MSNBC at 8 p.m.  If you are unable to view this program, you may read the speech here: http://www.americanrhetoric.com/speeches/mlkihaveadream.htm
Be prepared to reference specific lines in class on Thursday.  Also, note the rhetorical devices King used to get across his message.  Finally contemplate: How far have we come since that hot August 28, 1963 when thousands flocked to Washington?  Has King's dream been achieved? What gaps remain?
