The March on Washington in 1963 was one that was meant to bring attention to the injustice African-Americans faced in the United States. This march, attended by over 250,000 citizens, was hoping to bring about equality in the job search and freedom in general. At this event, Martin Luther King Jr. gave his famous "I Have a Dream" speech.

All of the speeches given that day and the protesting that ensued was all created in hopes that the US Congress would pass the Civil Rights Act. This act, would help to bring legal and political equality to African-Americans all over the United States. This would also help African-Americans from facing discrimination in the workplace and in the hiring process.

How, if at all, does pericles' speech provide evidence of hellenic preoccupation with the human individual, the life of the poli
nexus9112 [7]

Pericles' famous Funeral Oration, recorded by historian Thucydides in his book History of the Peloponnesian War (431 BC - 404 BC) , was delivered at the end of 431 BC as part of an annual public funeral for the war dead.

In his seech he broke away from tradition by skipping the military achievements of the city-state and dwelling on the city's cultural and academic qualities, its government system, its freedoms and the character of the athenian citizen. In the fourth paragraph he states:

<em>"Further, we provide plenty of means for the mind to refresh itself from business. We celebrate games and sacrifices all the year round, and the elegance of our private establishments forms a daily source of pleasure and helps to banish the spleen; while the magnitude of our city draws the produce of the world into our harbour, so that to the Athenian the fruits of other countries are as familiar a luxury as those of his own." </em>

We may indeed conclude that the content and direction of his speech gives an indication of his and his culture's appreciation for the citizen and his liberties, the city's vibrant cultural atmostphere and its cosmopolitan attitude, drawing these conclusions from the arguments he presents.
