Speech Analysis And Review

*** Please AVOID political campaign speeches (very few visual aids and movement is often limited) ***
No need to respond to a classmate.
Please copy & paste in message box & attach worksheet
** Remember to HIGHLIGHT key terms from our course readings.
Please use the worksheet located in the Public Speaking Module.
*** SPEECH YOU MAY NOT REVIEW ***
I have a dream – Dr. Martin Luther King Jr
(this is not allowed because I’ve received more than 65 reviews of this speech over the years. It is a great and powerful speech that you SHOULD see but I want you to choose something different for this assignment as I’ve reviewed this one far too many times. Research and find other human rights leaders from around the world and review their speeches.)
