I HAVE A DREAM – QUESTIONS1. Copy and define 10 words you don’t know from the speech.

2. What is MLK’s dream? Explain using two examples from the speech.

3. What are some of the specific acts of injustice against African Americans which King cites in his speech?

4. Nearly every line of King's speech is filled with powerful images, or "mental pictures," many created by using figures of speech. Images help audiences to feel what speakers/writers want them to feel, help them remember what they have read or heard, and help them understand difficult material. Write a well-developed paragraph telling which of King's images you find most powerful and appealing and explain why this image had meaning for you.
