Describe the two Americas.
1. One of the America's described America is considered to be beautiful.The other America contains every race other than whites and in this America the people live in poverty.

Express in your own words one of Dr. King's perspective? Include some of his message.
4. I think Dr. King meant that in his version of America everything is right and there is NO segregation or racial barriers. I think Dr. Martin Luther King jr. is trying to say that this America should be more like the other America.
