Question 1
Part A
Which claim does Reverend Martin Luther King Jr. make in his "I Have A Dream" speech?

A. Racism is still around, but it is hidden.

B. The Emancipation Proclamation had no effect.

C. Racism has been eradicated.

D. One hundred years after the Emancipation Proclamation, black people are still not truly free.

Question 2
Part B
Which evidence from King's speech is most relevant in supporting the claim identified in Part A?

A. "...the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination."

B. "But we refuse to believe that the bank of justice is bankrupt."

C. "It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their captivity."

D. "We refuse to believe that there are insufficient funds in the great vaults of opportunity of this nation."

Part B: The above claim is supported by the statement "...the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination."

The speech "I Have a Dream" was made by Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. about the injustice suffered by the black people in America despite the nation proclaiming itself to be independent and a democracy. The speech highlighted and boldly asserts the discrimination against the blacks and why racism is to be removed.

King claimed that despite the Emancipation Proclamation, black people are still not truly free.

They are still discriminated against and even treated the same way as before.

He stated that "the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation" and discrimination chains still have a strong hold on them.

His famous speech "I Have A Dream" asserts the issues of discrimination and racism that his people, the blacks, are subjected to. And it was this speech that also brought a bigger focus on the rights of the blacks. Thus, the correct answers are option D for Part A and option A for Part B.
