Many saw the injustice put upon the black community, but few fought for it. Both Frederick Douglass and Martin Luther King Jr. provided their nation with speeches, which would stir their listeners in the intent to bring equality to their country. In Frederick Douglass’ “Address to the Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society”, and Martin Luther King Jr's,”I have a Dream” both orators fought for the rights of blacks and the equality for all. Through rhetoric and literary devices, Frederick Douglas And Martin Luther King Jr. showcase why every single American deserves the rights they were born with. Douglass and King, use anaphora throughout their orations to represent the caliber and importance of them not wanting to fall slaves to society again.
