Why did Martin Luther King Jr. give his “I Have A Dream” speech at the Lincoln Memorial

 

I think that King did the speech at the Lincoln Memorial because… He wanted to make sure that everyone remembered what Abe Lincoln did and why the slaves were freed.  The WHOLE reason is just because our race and black people were slaves just because of their color!  So King knew that he needed to show everyone that Lincoln didn’t want this and that he wanted peace to everyone in the world not just white people.  And to this day black people are still treated differently and we need to fix that together.  

That is why I think that Martin Luther King Jr. gave his “I Have A Dream” speech at the Lincoln Memorial.

Tell me why you think King gave his speech at the Lincoln Memorial.
