I Have A Dream Rhetorical Analysis
“I Have a Dream” by Dr. Martin Luther King.
1.
King had a dream, that one day, the constant oppression against the African-Americans would seize. He wanted to see a society where every human being was equal to each other. King mentioned that he wanted to “lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood.” With this sentence, he wanted to convey that the old mindset - to judge people by their skin color, should suffocate, and instead, bring a new mindset to the society - to judge people by the content of the character. To summarize the speech with one sentence, King wanted to end racial segregation all across the United States of America.
2.
He mentioned how the black people were judged by their color of the skin, instead of how they act or their competence, and how the black people didn’t have the same civil rights as the white people had in the society which I think is horrible.

I think he mentioned all the different states to create a sense of unity across the country and to create that feeling that everyone is together as one through freedom and equal rights. Another reason he repeated his sentences and words is to make the audience remember his message, so they easier understand what he wanted to conduct to them. It’s not just King who uses this type of method when giving an important speech to a big crowd, this method is something that most of the greatest speakers out there uses to grip their audience.
4.
Definitely, yes. With King’s strong, confident and powerful words, he could hook anyone to listen and follow his statements. This attribute is a big advantage when speaking about something informative so the crowd really get moved because of the speaker’s great rhetorical techniques and dynamic performances.
