**What was the impact of the March on Washington?** ** AFTER ** It showed the American government that the Civil Rights Movement was needed right away, and they were not going to be violent in the process of trying to get Civil Rights.
 * If we didn't get to it in class, watch [|16th Street] to see what happened right after the March.**

KING

** Read the essay from [|**TIME 100 - Martin Luther King**] **. As you do, respond to the following questions:

**Why does the author feel that whites owe King the greatest debt?** Because he made it so America looked more like an accepting nation, so other countries didn't look down to America. **Was King "the right man at the right time"?** Yes he was because his speech came just in time for African Americans because beatings and killings and discrimination of blacks was at the high point when King gave his speech, so he stopped it just in time. I don't think so because it shows that people remember his speech, and why he gave it. Another reason why he would not he upset would be because people could remember the past with King's speech, so segregation and discrimination hopefully doesn't happen again in the future.
 * Would King be upset with the current use of his most often quoted line? Why or why not?**
