Answers
Yes, I am persuaded by the speech of martin luther king( i have a dream).Speaking during the march on Washington, D.C. in 1963, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. claims that African Americans have come to the nation's capital to cash "a promissory note," a note that must be honored or there will be no tranquility in America.
This "promissory note" is a promise written into the Constitution that all men are guaranteed the "unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." King contends that even though his people were freed by the Emancipation Proclamation, they are still not afforded true freedom because there is a lack of opportunity under segregation and police brutality. King contends that "[T]here will be neither rest nor tranquility in America until the Negro is granted his citizenship rights."
At the same time, Dr. King urges his people not to resort to acts of hatred. He further urges them to conduct their struggle with "dignity and discipline," and to avoid all physical violence.
Dr. Martin Luther King ends his speech with his famous words "I have a dream." He speaks of a new vision for America in which the people of his race will be afforded equal opportunities and equal justice under the precept in the Constitution that "all men are created equal." With this dream and "faith" that the "promissory note" will be honored, Dr. King encourages his people to continue to pursue the changes necessary in America.
