About This Lesson
This is a one of a large number of uploads that uses three MLK speeches ("I Have a Dream," "Beyond Vietnam" and "Mountaintop) to teach both speech techniques AND persuasion. The unit also addresses how the media constructs past and present events for often political reasons.
The speech referenced, the "Resources and Timelines" information and the background on Civil Rights that were used for this lesson would make this resource more useful.
