In Dr.kings famous “I have a dream” speech he basically talks about how he looks forward to the future where he believes that everyone will be able to be treated equally, he looks forward to a future where racism will not exist.  A rhetorical analysis in which he uses in his speech is religious allusion, Dr.king uses religion in order to make white folks understand that god had made them equal. He would refer to religion being important towards the end of segregation, as he says “with this faith we will be able to work together, to pray together, to struggle together, to go to jail together, to stand up for freedom together, knowing that we will be free one day. This will be the day when all of Gods children will be able to sing with new meaning” (pg.407),because the day when everyone will come together and stand against racism then that will be the day that they will truly understand what it means to be free & what it means to be equal.  Religious allusion played a big role to his speech because Christians where normally white folks and the Bible was a main role in they’re life, so dr.king believed that if he showed them that in the Bible it says that all men are treated equal then he would have a chance to convince others that racism shouldn’t be a problem.
