More MLK

As we discussed in class, I want you to listen to Martin Luther King, Jr.'s, delivery of his famous speech and write down anything you notice about how he speaks: What phrases does he say differently than you might expect? Where does he speed up? Slow down? What words take on more emphasis in his reading that in your own reading? Does he pause in any unexpected spots or speed through what you think should be a pause? Does his voice rise or fall in ways that strike you? Anything you notice, I'd like to hear about. I won't collect the assignment, but I want you to be able to tell me something when I call on you.
