Tell Us Your Story
Id like to thank you for that efforts you might have produced in writing this write-up. I am hoping the exact same finest operate from you within the future also. In reality your creative writing skills has inspired me to start my very own BlogEngine blog now.
Thanks for creating and sharing this quiz, I learned a few things I didn’t know.
I just wanted to take a minute to let you know that the answer to one of the questions on this quiz is incorrect. The answer you have listed for question #9: is “I have a dream”. While that is the name of the speech, those aren’t the first four words.
The first two sentences of the speech Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. gave during the 1963 “March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom” were:
“I am happy to join with you today in what will go down in history as the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation.
Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the Emancipation Proclamation…..”
Depending on where people consider the beginning of the speech, the first four words are ” I am happy to” or “Five score years ago”.
