A Dream or a Vision: Voices of Reflective Learners on the Application of MLK Jr “Dream” Speech
The panel will encompass the voices of a group of learners. This presentation will highlight the reflections and insights of learners centered on one of M.L.K. Jr. monumental Speeches. Learners will first reflect on the focus of the speech to address whether it was a “dream” or a “vision.” Learners will secondly reflect on the general content of the speech to highlight its relevance, to a “dream” versus a “vision.” Learners will thirdly reflect on specific content of the speech to offer insight on its relevance to life in the past, and to their lives today. The presentation is designed to address the extent to which the foresight of MLK Jr has been realized today, and if not, where do today’s learners sense they are today in relation to the aspirational content of the speech.
