Answer:

<u>D - The allusion reminds the audience that 100 years have passed since the Emancipation Proclamation, yet inequality still exists.</u>

Explanation:

All of the other answer options do not make sense, they are incorrect.

What was the Emancipation Proclamation? President Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation on January 1, 1863, as the nation approached its third year of bloody civil war. The proclamation declared "that all persons held as slaves" within the rebellious states "are, and henceforward shall be free."

A) The allusion indicates to the audience that enslaving people was always illegal in the United States. ---- This is not true. It was legal for a time.

B) The allusion reflects Dr. King’s importance since it refers to another important figure in American history: President Lincoln. ---- It does, but thats not why he reffered to it.

C) The allusion demonstrates Dr. King’s belief that equality was achieved with the Emancipation Proclamation. ---- This is incorrect. He clearly states that equality was NOT achieved by the emancipation proclamation.

Hope this help and you can understand it better! Have a great day!
