This week, Ray Castillo, the U.S. Embassy’s Press Attache, will lead you through a speech writing session based two of the greatest American speeches: Lincoln’s “Gettysburg Address” and Martin Luther King, Jr.’s “I have a Dream.” You’ll develop your writing skills, learn some history, and see how these speeches connect to American society today.
