I HAVE A DREAM August 28, 1963  ** Read the essay from [|**TIME 100 - Martin Luther King**] **. As you do, respond to the following questions **Why does the author feel that whites owe King the greatest debt?**

He freed whites of the burden of century old hypocrisy, claiming that the U.S. is indeed the land of freedom when in reality it is a segregated nation. It is because of King and his movement that the United States can claim to be leaders of the free world.

Yes, it is hard to envision a civil rights movement without him.
 * Was King "the right man at the right time"?**

** Would King be upset with the current use of his most often quoted line? Why or why not? ** Yes, when it is not conveying the message that he originally meant it to, or when it is being used in ways he would not endorse. He would however appreciate the quotation of the line of his most famous speech if it were being used in a way that he had intended it for.
