What is the difference similaraties of martin luthers speech i have a dream to Kevin Rudds sorry speech?

Answer 1

both speakers sought to rally their people. Martin Luther King (MLK) rallied the Negroes to seek political/non-violent means of oppressing the current social status of a slave even though the emancipation proclamation made by Lincoln specifically defined Negroes as free people and abolished slavery. Kevin rudd on the other hand was rallying Australians to unite with indigenous Australians and to abolish any remaining discrimination, hatred or contempt among settlers and and indigenous. they both make use of persuasive techniques such as assonance, alliteration, use of metaphors, use of evidence. MLK is hesitant to use statistical evidence for fear that his audience may not understand and Kevin Rudd uses a small amount of basic-easy to comprehend statistics regarding the numbers and percentages of children taken during the stolen generation period.

this is but the beginning of an actual discussion and proper analysis
