It is not just a political statement: it is a universal human rights declaration, as this speech targets everyone involved in segregation and discrimination which are against basic human rights. This speech includes a universal message about freedom and equality.

It’s a universal human rights declaration since he urges for the rights of black people in America however his speech applies to black people all around the world. His speech is not just a political civil rights message it is also demanding the basic human rights of black people to end segregation and racial injustice and to have freedom for all. His speech has impacted the entire world for decades after it occurred leaving a significant mark on the world.

MLK’s speech should be considered as a Universal human rights declaration. Some of the reasons are:

-Moral foundation, MLK uses ethics and morals to justify his statements ( making it a persuasive technique )

- Global change, MLK knew with the amount of people coming to support him, that his speech was to lead to a change in history and free his people from their long night captivity

-Beyond politics, all of this speech is based on human nature and personal thoughts

MLK’s speech is considered as a universal message of human rights due to his topic of equality in race and color, fighting discrimination and racism, as it’s a common problem occurring all around and should be stopped

it should primarily be considered a universal human rights declaration since the situation they faced during the speech isn’t only political, but also social and psychological, as the problem he was standing up against is faced universally by millions of african americans all around the world, he also pushed for freedom and human rights.
