Does anyone know of any sites or published information available that gives analytical information about the speech "I have a dream" in relation to change .

Or just any ideas anyone has would be much appreciated.

umm...

hey umm... i doubt there would be any info available which analyses the speech with accordance to change...

i think u should just closely scruntinise the speech yourself and make reference to change - it would b much easier and u would actually use ur time doing the work... instead of spending huge amounts of time TRYING to find stuff that already analyses it for ya.

umm... one could be social change?

Look behind you
I can give you a few tips.
1)He starts off by alluding to the Gettysburg address.
2)Heavily ladden with metaphors. Sounds like he is preaching to his congreagtion (was ordaned as a minister in the Baptist church)
3)'BUT' is used as a qualitative conjuntion in the second paragraph and he discusses the failure of the emacipation proclamation.
4)His speech is full of rhetoric and history.

That should get you started.
