- What made this speech rhetoric was a lot of pathos.
- There was so much emotion in the way MLK gave the speech and the content would also appeal to the listeners emotions.
- He also used some logos while he talked about Abraham Lincoln by using dates and stating facts.
- Ethos was the hardest for me to find but I think he had some near the end talking about what the children will be doing.
We are the "The Green Room," a constituency of university students who have one single-minded goal: to bring the knowledge of the academy to the public. Though we value what we are able to do ourselves, our real power is in what we are able to help others to accomplish. That is why we are reaching out—we want to help. To this end, the Green Room is committed to diligent scholarship on issues of contemporary relevance, and to sharing what we discover with the world.

I agree that the king used a lot of pathos. He strongly appealed to peoples emotions throughout his entire speech.
