It's one of the most famous speeches because it have black people hope, and it showed that everyone black or white deserve to be treated equally. The "I have a dream the little white boys and girls and black boys and girl will be able to play together, go to school together, I have a dream."
The over meaning of this speech is basically that everyone is the same and that everyone should have the same amount of rights. I think his purpose was just to let people know that this was going on in their world. Dr. King grew up in Atlanta, Georgia and was born on January 15, 1929.

The main reason that Dr. Martin Luther King's speech was so moving is that he was an inspiring man in general, but also because of what he proved to the world. He lived through a terrible time of segregation and never lost hope. I find the beginning of the speech to be memorable because it was said very powerfully. The overall meaning of this is that he wants everyone to live in peace. Martib Luther King's purpose in making it is to help people realize what they aren't seeing. A fact about Mr. King is that his father was pastor and he came from a nice family.

This speech was and is very popular because it changed the future. His speech was powerful and heart-felt. The part that I found to be most memorable is the "I have a dream" part. The overall purpose of his speech was to convince people that there should no longer be segregration. He wished that all African Americans and Cacausiasian peole could get along. Thanks to the help of Dr.Martin Luther King, everyone can live together, play together, and work together no matter what color you are. There are still racist people out there, definately. Dr.Martin Luther King, as a little boy, liked to pull pranks. Once, he took a piece of fur, and tied it to a piece of string. He laid the fur piece on the sidewalk, and hid behinde some bushes. When pedestrians walked by, he would pull the string. The fur would move like a rodent. People would be frightened thinking that it was a live animal!
It is one of the most famous speeches ever delivered, because it changed lots of minds for blacks and whites at this time. It changed how segregated people viewed each other throughout their lives, but most importantly it won victory over segregation in this great crusade. To me, the most memorable part of the speech was, "Where my fathers died, pilgrims fried, and mountains cried." The overall meaning of the speech is to change how people will look at different races and cultures. It will change how they interact together in the future of America. His purpose was to change people's prospective on the life that all of these americans lived. One fact about Martin Luther King Jr. was that he took over as the pastor, later in his life when his father-in-law died in 1931.

This speech is famous because it helped break people out of the terrible trance of segregation they were in. I find the ending to be the most moving part of the whole speech. He sums everything up and really pushes his idea through. The overall idea of the speech is to show people that no humans should be judged or treated differently because of their race, beliefs, or religion. I believe he made this speech to empower people and show his side of segregation and how it made darker skinned people feel. One fact about Martin Luther King is that he was a Baptist minister and a Civil- Rights activist. He also had a huge positive impact on race relations in the United States during the mid 1950's.
This peech is extremly famous because, it gave the peole hope to fight for what was right, and it akso started a major revolution. It helped bring the United States out of the seregation that it was so deeply in. The most meorable part of the speech, is when he says the famous words, 'i have a dream." I feel these words are pretty much known by almosty every single citizen, in America. The overall meaning of the speech is basicly, that all people no matter what race, are equal to eachtoher in a every way possible. The purpose of this speech was to change peoples prospective on this childish behavior. He beleived every one was equal, and they really are. On fact abou Dr. Martin Luther King is he was born in Atlanta Goergia, in the year 1929.
It is one of the most famous speeches ever delivered because it was during The March On Washington. I find "I have a dream the little white boys and girls and black boys and girl will be able to play together, go to school together." that part the most memorable in the entire speech. The meaning of the speech was he wants everyone to be the same and have the same rights. The purpose of this speech was to persude and to expand his focus on equal rights. MLK was accused of being a communist by J. Edgar Hoover. These alligations were false.
It is the most important speech because of how powerful it was and how it affected the people. I find the parts where he talks about the people and how they should be treated. I think it was good he made a speech like this because of how it affected everyone and how they began to think. The meaning of the speech is that everyone should be treated the same no matter what race, how they act, or speak. His purpose is to tell people that no one should be treated different and they should make a difference. One fact about Martin Luther King is that he was the youngest at age thirty- five to win the Nobel Peace Prize. I think it was one of the most important speeches of the time.
It is one of the most famous speeches ever because it shows you can acheive what you believe in. However, one part of his speech was "I had a dream". His dream became a success. In my opinion, the overall meaning of this speech would have to be fight for what you believe in, and it may very well happen. Martin Luther King's purpose in making this video was to show with his confidence he acheieved freedom for many. One fact about Dr. Martin Luther King is that in 1955 he had recieved his doctorate from Boston University.

This was one of the most famous speech because it gave African Americans hope and faith that one day they will be treated just as equality. The best part would have to be "I have a Dream."

The overall meaning of this speech would be to stop racism. It also shows that you should never judge anyone by what they look like. One fact about Martin Luther King is that he was a pastor, and he grew up in Atlanta.
I think that his the most impotant person in the United states. He was one of the bravest person that I herd about so far.

He said that, That is true. He new my name some how. he was born january , 5th 1929.

It is a famous speach because it said that people are people no matter what race. If you were the other race you would be mad so why do that to other people? "I Have A Dream" is my favorite part of the speach because it tells about what everybody's dream should be. The overall meaning of this speach is that the only thing segregating people is something that is uncontrollable; skin color. Martin Luther King's purpose for making this speach is trying to stop discrimination. He is also saying that blacks can meet goals. He graduated high school at the age of 15 and entered Morehouse college shortly after. He met a big goal for blacks at that time.

This is one of the most famous speeches in history because it involves all people for equal rights. I think that one of the most memorable parts about this speech is at the very beginning. “I have a dream.” Everybody knows what speech that starts and that’s why it’s so famous. The overall meaning of this speech is to give all people equal rights regardless of what color or religion or anything in that category. One fact about Dr. King is that most of his work, while working for his doctorate degree in Boston University, was heavily plagiarized. His professors didn’t know that until he was dead. So revoking the title served no purpose.

Anybody can write a speech, but it takes true power of the mind to write such an inspiring and life changing one. The most memorable part is the opening line. "I have a dream..." when you hear those words together you automatically know that Martin Luther King is whom someone is speaking about. The overall meaning of this speech is that everyone has their own dream, that can be powerful enough to change the world. The reasoning behind his speech was to try his best to get everyone to understand how unfair slavery was, and that all rights should be equal.

In my opinion, Martin Luther King Jr.'s speech was one of the most famous speeches ever delivered because he was one, if not the first, black person to speak out about segregation. Also, he changed history with his speech and inspired everyone, no matter what skin color. I find two parts very memorable. When Martin Luther King Jr. says multiple times "let freedom ring" and, of course "I have a dream" because I think it's the most recognized part of his speech. The overall meaning of the speech is that he wants everyone to live in peace and live together happily. Martin Luther King's speech titled "I Have a Dream" was once called "Normalcy, Never Again" and his first drafts never included the phrase "I have a dream."
This is one of the most memorable speeches because it really helped change segregation. The most memorable part of the speech was the end where he repeated the "I have a dream" part.

This speech makes things possible. It gave hope to the colored and changed how others saw them, & also treated them. A fact about Dr. King, In 1954, Martin Luther King became pastor of the Dexter Avenue Baptist Church in Montgomery, Alabama

The purpose MLK made this speech was to express his opinion about racism and that little kids don't care about this kind of stuff so why should we.

This is one of the most famous speeches eveer becauuse this speech ended, on a government level, discrimination aggainst african americans.

Dr. King's purpose was to let people know of the true wrongs of segregation. Dr. King has over 900 streets named after him
This speech is one of the most famous in history because it sparked the beginning of the end of unequal treatment to the black population in the United States.

Dr. King was once even accused of being a communist; however, these accusations were proven inaccurate.
It's one of the most famous speeches ever delivered because this is how slavery became abolished and there was no sepereation between black and whites.

The overall meaning of this speech is for there not to be a seperation between whites and blacks and that all of us together can be treated as equals. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. won the noble piece prize for his wonderful and touching speech which also changed world history.
