Miss Martin's Demonstrativeness Speech

In Dr. Martin Luther King’s speech, “Beyond Vietnam: A Time to Break Silence”, King asserts that the war in Vietnam is a “symptom” (7) of a much larger disease that affects the “American spirit” (7). The disease King mentions is causing destruction where ever it is found, and in the case of the Vietnam war, it has led to their oppression and the death of people. In the section, Strange Liberators, King states, “They move sadly and apathetically as we heard them off the land of their fathers into concentration camps where minimal social needs are rarely met. They know they must move or be destroyed by our bombs” (8). King believed that the disease was leading the United States to take drastic actions against the Vietnamese people. The U.S.

As a consequence we the people believe we all have equal rights, when living in a world of equality when no one is living discriminated by their race, religion and sex and all we do have are freedom, freedom to express our self we as women and people in actuality, at this point where in the world is that place of equality? In my opinion, the world would always be and remained unequal. Furthermore, in the past Women did not only have the right to vote, to run for president, to work, to go to school, they didn't have the right to get an education. women just don't only deal with as property, but also objects. As a consequence after some brave women decided to fight this form of government and social standards in settled all the power that remained

How does the speakers' rhetoric evoke a reaction from the audience, in the speeches? Political speeches use rhetorical devices to persuade the reader to engage in their speech. "I have a dream” by Martin Luther King Jr, ESPY award speech by Jimmy Valvano, JFK's inaugural address, the Gettysburg address by Abraham Lincoln, 2009 inaugural address by Barack Obama are examples of political speeches that contain rhetoric. Throughout the speeches asyndeton, procatalepsis, allusion, antithesis, ethos, pathos, logo, repetition and parallelism are used.

Racism has always been a major problem in America. However, it was known to be the most problematic in the late 1950s. On August 28 1963, Dr. Martin Luther King delivered his infamous speech “I Have a Dream” to America. His dream highlighted the injustices of segregation and discrimination of African Americans that took place in this nation every single day. Dr. King inspired thousands despite the color of their skin, to take a stance against racism, with his powerful way with words. In his speech MLK efficaciously uses, Ethos, Pathos, and Logos by using allusions, developing credibility, in his speech to persuade all Americans to be aware of the problems with racism.

“But more basically,I am in Birmingham because injustice is here.Just as the prophets of the eighth century B.C.left their villages and carried their,”thus saint the lord” far beyond the boundaries of their home towns,and just as the Apostle Paul left his village of Tarsus and carried the gospel of Jesus Christ to the far corners of the Greco-Roman world,so am I compelled to carry the gospel of freedom beyond my own home town.like Paul,I must constantly respond to the Macedonian call for aid.”

February 26, 2015, Treyvon Martin is shot and killed by George Zimmerman. One year later a jury would find Zimmerman not guilty of murder, sparking outrage and putting the spotlight on the suspicions borne by African Americans.

Dr. Martin Luther King’s historic “I Have a Dream” speech was delivered at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington D.C on August 28, 1963. The speech is one in which has gained much recognition over the years and virtually won Dr. King the Nobel Peace Prize for his non-violent approach towards racism. Mahatma Gandhi was one of King’s prominent inspirations for his nonviolent movement. Gandhi, decades before Dr. King, practiced non-violence acts and civil disobedience. The will and strength that Gandhi possessed while advocating for peace and non-violence during the terrible events that had taken place in India moved Dr. King to find the path he had to take during his own strides to create a better America, primarily for African Americans. Although

Martin Luther King Jr. advocates for non-violence throughout much of his “Letter from a Birmingham Jail.” However, he uses the extremist behavior of the black nationalists as a way to threaten the “white moderates” into siding with him on the issue of Civil Rights with the idea that he is the most moderate and sensible person leading the fight for equality. How can King justify using others’ violence to argue for nonviolence? Even though King’s tactics seems contradictory, it did help to encourage “white moderates” to advance his cause for equality, avoiding the violence of extremist groups.

The Great Angela Davis came to East Carolina right in time as me and my peers suggested. East Carolina is at a time of great racial divide both noticeable and unnoticeable. The crowd was quite a pleasant one as we listened to the powerful speech of one of the great leaders of society. Her speech was based around prisons complex and racial divides and injustice happening within society. She spoke with great poise and assurance as the audience accepted all her knowledge and teaching. I was an amazing event that I wish more students and professors could hear and witness.

After reading and analyzing Dr.Kings “Remaining Awake during a Revolution” commencement speech that he presented at Oberlin College during his graduation ceremony; he wanted the people to have a good visual on what he was explaining and talking about. King wanted to inform the people about what was going; so he used allusions, statics, and logos.

In his speech, King expresses, that the "Negro...finds himself in exile in his own land” (Jr., Dr. Martin). This expression yields empathy as it demonstrates that he sympathizes with the unreasonable treatment and distance of African Americans. He likewise utilizes highly conative words to bring out an enthusiastic reaction in the audience, for example, "chains of discrimination" and "oppression" to fortify the requirement for change. He also uplifts his audience through positive diction using words such as “freedom,” “majestic,” and “brotherhood” to spur and move his crowd. He additionally claims to logos through his utilization of analogies: “America has given the Negro people a bad check, a check which has come back marked ‘insufficient

The date and time for the speech was 28 August 1963. The speaker was Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. The audience were a massive group of civil rights marchers approximately two hundred fifty thousand. The topic the speaker addressed was for an end to racism in the United States, and economic and civil rights. I had minimum knowledge that it would be about addressing the end to discrimination of the negroes. Yes, the speaker was introduced as a great man of this nation. The speaker had a couple qualifications for speaking on this subject since he had a dream, and was a negro wanting an end to racist behavior. My initial impression of the speaker was a brave man to stand in front of thousands of people, and mention a matter that was serious. I personally would rate the

Life is always easier when there is a way to find the answer. A cake is easier to bake with a recipe to follow, and a great speech needs a formula or list of aspects to include. Good morning Mrs Roche and students. For my presentation today I will explore a formula I have created that contains all the elements of a great speech. I produced this formula while I was studying some of the work of one of the best speakers and leaders of all time: Martin Luther King Jr. Martin Luther King Jr was an American Baptist Minister, Activist, Humanitarian, and leader in the African American Civil Rights Movement.
