SU Writing I Have a Dream Speech by Martin Luther King Jr Source Evaluation Essay

Touchstone 2.1: Evaluate a Source

 For this essay, you will select one of the sources you have found through your preliminary research about your research topic.

Source Selected: King Jr, M. L. (1963). I have a dream speech. Washington, DC, August, 28.

Which source you choose is up to you; however, it should be substantial enough that you will be able to talk about it at length, and intricate enough that it will keep you (and your reader) interested. Once you have chosen a source, you will evaluate the source on two levels:

• Credibility: Using the information in this unit as a guide, evaluate the source’s authenticity and reliability.
• Usefulness: Using a combination of summary and analysis, examine the source on a critical level.
