A year later‚ he delivered his iconic speech‚ “I Have a Dream.” This historical 17-minute address shattered barriers in some people’s eyes‚ challenging segregation and prejudice within the USA. It’s interesting to realise that in such a small period of 17 minutes‚ he started something generational in roughly the time it takes for your bus to reach Seven Hills Station. Despite the impact and conciseness of his speech‚ the fight for racial equality continues today. George Floyd’s

In Austin Berghuy’s speech he persuaded the audience to stop eating fast-food in order to prevent to risk of obesity.
