Martin Luther King Jr Use Pathos In I Have A Dream Speech

In the speech, “I Have a Dream,” Martin Luther King talked about how the United States is segregated and how he had a dream of peace with equality for all; everywhere, let freedom ring. Everyone, no matter their color, should have the same rights. Also instead of being violent, people need to be peaceful and “Not drink from the fountain of bitterness.” King truly spoke from his heart instead of just stating the big picture.

King used Pathos to kind of play into people's heart because he was saying how people are not being treated fairly. “This momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of Negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice.” The way King said that just made people feel bad about the way blacks were treated. King later said “This note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the "unalienable rights" of " life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness."
