MLK Speech on Vietnam War

MLK Speech on Vietnam War 1967

Point from King's Speech"As I have walked among the desperate, rejected, and angry young men, I have told them that Molotov cocktails and rifles would not solve their problems" (Line 47-49).At this point in the speech, king is explaining how the poor black boys are going into the war to make something of themselves, however, the government is trying to recruit them by saying positive things when in reality, they are going to die.

Similar Point in today's worldThis is similar in todays world because military recruiters often try to recruit by only saying the positive things that they can give rather than the negative which attracts poorer people because they believe it will benefit them down the road such as the money.
