5. PERSUASIVE ESSAY

Write a "carefully reasoned persuasive essay that defends, challenges, or qualifies" the main idea in Martin Luther King, Jr.'s quote.

"Now, I say to you today my friends, even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream. I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: - 'We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.'

Remember to use the link I gave you for help in writing your persuasive essay.

Minimum words: 300
Final copy: Doubled space, typed.
