This blog will focus on Martin Luther king and the power of his speeches.
King used many skills while speaking in front of hundreds of people. He used questions in many of his speeches, questions that made the African American people feel confident. He repeated himself numerous times using different sorts of hand gestures as well. The tone ofnhis voiced was a main factor towards changing the psychological state of the African American people. He spoke with confidence. Confidencene is what many were seeking, king offered it to them. Emphasis was a sign of confidencen within king's speeches. King used speech as power, he did not have to use violence his words were strong enough. Speech was the ultimate weapon, at least in Martin luther kings view. His speech was powerful to the extent where it was the cause of his death.
