Between Ch. 4 of Age of Great Dreams, the MLK Bio, and the speech, it's important to consider context in relation to 1960s versus today. Dr. King was not entirely well-liked, and his message was delivered in front of a crowd that potentially could have turned against him, even as he delivered a speech of peace, hope, and equality.

In the speech, King utilizes the three key rhetorical strategies:

logos = logic/reason
pathos = emotion/empathy
ethos = morals/credentials
Each strategy helps to make his message impactful and persuades the listener/reader to agree with his main argument. For this discussion, I'd like you to respond to the following (for 10 points):

Which of those rhetorical strategies do you think King utilizes most? Why do you think that, and how do you believe he does this? (Use 1-2 specific examples/quotes from the speech in your explanation)
What do you believe is King's central argument or "thesis" in this speech? Why? (Explain using 1-2 examples/quotes from the speech)
Which quote do you feel is the most impactful in the speech? Why?
