Class schedule on Monday; pre-reading questions for I Have A Dream

Dear class,

Hope you’re enjoying your break from class.  Just a reminder that Wednesday will follow Monday’s schedule: we’ll start at 10 am and let out at 12:15.  As mentioned last week, you should:
1) upload a copy of Essay 1 to the appropriate Dropbox by 10 am Wednesday (Dropboxes—>Final Draft Dropboxes—>Essay 1 Dropbox),
2) have a physical copy ready at the beginning of class,
3) read ‘I Have A Dream,uploading images of any 2 annotated pages to the appropriate Dropbox ( (Dropboxes—>Annotation Dropboxes—>”I Have A Dream” Annotated Pages).  Here are the pre-reading questions:
-Why does King refer to Lincoln at the beginning of his speech?  How does Lincoln add power to King’s message?
-What are some images or metaphors that seem to repeat throughout the speech?
-What are some moments where you see King appealing to logic and reason?  Where do you see him appeal to emotion?
For Essay 1, please consult our notes from last class and the Assignment description to make sure you’re adhering to professional formatting standards.  I look forward to reading your work!
Best,
Professor Kwong
