She was a Jamaican woman who ran a hotel with her mom when she was 12. She learned how to make natural medicines out of plants and helped to heal solders anywhere she could. When the Crimean war broke out Mary felt like she had to do something and not just sit here in the hotel. So she went to England hoping she would be sent out to work with Florence Nightingale ( who was a very important nurse and a professional in her job ). But her help was rejected so she used her own money to go out to the war and help soldiers. When she arrived at Panama she built a hotel with her husband and with two mules went out on the battlefield and helped soldiers. She didn't let the bullets passing by stop her either. ]]> 2017-03-22 07:01:19 UTC https://padlet.com/h_dyte/szqau631sy8z/wish/161717981 Bruno - bruno_barath https://padlet.com/h_dyte/szqau631sy8z/wish/162193285 Mary was born in 1805 in Kingston, Jamaica.Her father was a Scottish soldier and her mother was Jamaican.Mary’s mother ran a boarding house in Kingston.

Singer Mahalia Jackson coached Dr. King to tell the listeners “about the dream.”

    2. The full speech is 17 minutes long and was reportedly written in New York and Washington, D.C.

    3. Dr. King was inspired by other famous works: English playwright and poet William Shakespeare, the U.S. Declaration of Independence and The Bible influenced the “I Have A Dream” speech.

    4. Even though it’s known as the “I Have A Dream” speech, it was originally called “The Normalcy Speech” and “A Canceled Check”.

    5. The civil rights leader stayed up until 4 a.m. the night before working on the speech. He reportedly told an aide that he wanted the speech to sound like President Abraham Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address.

    6. People almost never clearly heard Dr. King’s speech.  Even though an expensive sound system was installed for the event, it was damaged right before. Thanks to Attorney General Robert Kennedy, Army Corps of Engineers were able to fix the speakers before Dr. King took the stage.

    7.  Clarence B. Jones, who helped co-write the speech, said Dr. King adlibbed much of the speech, especially the famous “I have a dream” part. The speech “went on to depart drastically from the draft I'd delivered,” Jones reportedly said, adding: “In front of all those people, cameras, and microphones, Martin winged it.”
