Dr. Martin Luther King Jr's "I Have a Dream" speech is considered to be one of the more impact-ful speeches of all time. At the time the speech was giving, the world was going through tons of chaos. Nation's were fighting each other and a civil war between whites and people of color was heavily underway within the United States. When Dr. King gave his speech on the steps of the Lincoln monument, it provided hope to the people that change could be possible and that there would be equal rights. The United States now is currently heading towards a state of division. I feel that if Dr. King was to speak the speech today that it would instill a change in people. Dr. Kings speech was emotional. It made the world see the United States vulnerable.
