    Martin Luther King spoke with great passion in his famous “I Have a Dream” speech. Without a doubt he really connected with his audience as well. He knew exactly how to get his audience attention. Now granted‚ at that time of year someone had to step up and say that enough is enough. MLK was that man.

    Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was well known for giving many inspiring speeches that had an affect on the American society during the 1960’s.

    Essay 1 Throughout the entirety of this essay‚ King pleads with the community and society as a whole to stand back and look at the situation he finds himself in. A society that is crutched by the injustice of segregation. Weakened by the laws that are established in places such as Birmingham.

    People should have freedom to say what they want to say‚ for what they believe in. They should stand up for what’s right‚ and people should let them do that. People’s ideas are precious‚ they can change the world‚ they can make a difference. Censorship is something you should take seriously‚ it shows what people are for and what people are against. I think people should have a say on what’s right without involving violent issues. For example‚ you know Rosa Parks‚ well she stood up for what
