 Black History Month Video March 14, 2010
Mary A. Johnson (Texas)
Used during Black History Month for a unit on Speaking and Listening Skills. Can go directly to the speech with out extras or lengthen if need for lesson plan.
Great speech....not the greatest quality February 2, 2010
David A. Medzorian (Arlington, Massachusetts)
I agree that the I Have A Dream speech was one of Dr. King's finest orations, although many will argue that it was not his greatest speech ever. The supplemental footage which shows the preparations for the march, as well as the events of that historic day, is incredible to watch and hear. It really puts you in the crowd on that hot August day in 1963. Unfortunately, the worst part of the video is the actual I have a Dream speech itself; not because of the speech...but the quality of the footage used to present it. What you have is a kinescope of the television broadcast. A kinescope recording is a motion picture recording of a television image, achieved either by aiming a film camera at a television monitor or using the telecine transfer method. The bottom line is that it's an inferior quality image both in terms of visual and audio quality. The speech was recorded on videotape at the time by the three networks and that tape still exists today with superb video and audio quality. Why that wasn't used as the source material for this video is confusing, as it would have looked like a live TV broadcast, although in black and white.

If you thought you could hear ML King's I Have a Dream speech, you are sadly mistaken. There are just a few sentences.

Its a very good movie,clear and memoriable; however;it was just too short and I had expectated a longer version, rather than just short clips.

I felt short changed, expected all the events that lead up to the monumental speech, including Dr. King's speech that day. It's obvious the distributors of this video just wanted to make money. They really should be ashamed of themselves. Our children lose on this one.
