Hi

The purpose for Michael Rutledge writing about his great-great -grandfather's experiences in Samuel's Memory is to remind people of the suffering American Indians endured on the Trail of Tears.

In Samuel's Memory the author tells the story of his great-great grandfather, a then 9 year-old boy called Samuel Cloud and his experience on the Trail of Tears. His purpose to tell this story is  to remind people of the suffering American Indians endured on the Trail of Tears.

its probably fingerprint or personality

each year on this day, i make it a point to listen to dr. martin luther king jr.’s great “i have a dream” speech. it’s electrifying every single time.

the content of dr. king’s speech, his inspiring presence, and the moment in history all came together to make the iconic “i have a dream” speech the defining moment of the american civil rights movement. but there are several other reasons why this speech, delivered over 50 years ago, remains an example of one of the best speeches in american history.

since part of my job is to people become better presenters, i’ve noticed several techniques that we can all learn from and be inspired by in this magnificent speech.

it’s anchored in a powerful related location

in most cases, you can’t handpick the spot to give a presentation, as mlk did for supreme symbolic effect when he stood on the steps of the lincoln memorial and echoed the opening words of the gettysburg address (“five score years ago . . ). but you absolutely can amplify your message by adapting it to your setting and location.
