The message is that Dr. Kings dream is being forgotten and no one recognizes what he did anymore. I do not agree . i don't agree because I think there are still people that remember and praise him for what he did.

I believe Martin Luther king's dream was very big during his time. His dream has died and or is still dying till this day, I believe as us African Americans we have killed his dream as people and is still continuing to kill his dream and his message to us African Americans is slowly fading away.

The '' I have a dream'' is a speech written by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. This speech is about jobs and having freedom. I agree with it because everyone deserves to have freedom and everyone is equally made no one deserves more than another person because god made us all equally no matter our race or color.

I believe that the message of this cartoon is saying that Martin Luthor Kings speech "I have a dream" is fading away in America. I say this because in the cartoon the "Dream" is starting to fade away and such emphasizes a message. I agree with this message because In my experience I see blacks, Latinos, and every race divided and see obvious discrimination.

I see Dr. Martin Luther King Jr, next to it says I have a dream, this means that anyone wants to have their dream job, they will have to keep fighting until they make their dreams come true and dreams don't just happen, you must put the hard work to make it happen.

what i see is a big build board of a man who gave a freedom of speech for a race that wasn't getting treated equally as the same at the other race and that's one of his famous words he said in a speech.

This cartoon is trying to say that the message that king has put out to the world is fading away. People are starting to for get about what he did. I agree with this cartoon because I don't see a lot of people talking about him like they used to on his day. peace out.

I think what this cartoon is trying to tell us is MLK had a dream for everyone . he wanted everyone to get along and now that he's gone he doesn't want anyone to forget that he had a dream for everyone not just blacks he had a dream for everyone.

I think the image is showing how his overall dream of peace and equality is fading away due to all the racism and one race thinking they are superior than the other. The image is true because as i stated before racism strongly exists along with supremacy so his dream is indeed fading.

The "I have a dream" quote is from a speech that Dr. King Jr made for people of his color. That speech really impacted how the world is today. Then after that Mr. King got shot and killed for that speech.

The image is saying that Martin Luther King's dream wasn't completed. I agree with this because yes a lot has changed but their is still a lot of racism. King's dream was almost completed but it just didn't happen all the way.

i think what this message is saying is that MLK had a dream to everyone to get along and that now he is passed away he does not want anybody to forget it

Martin Luther King Jr. is on a build board with the saying of "I HAVE A DREAM" and its giving us a message that he fought for African Americans, who were mistreated because of the color of their skin. But also the word dream is not done yet meaning his dream were not completed because even till this day people of color are getting treated unfairly.

Well, the message this image is sending is that MLK dream is unfinished and someone needs to get it done.

I believe that this picture is representing how Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream Speech" is being forgotten and ignored. To add on, I feel that this picture is symbolizing how change for the good is no longer occurring.

I believe the cartoon represents MLK's dream of people uniting and stopping discrimination being painted over by the racism irrupting today. I agree because the president of our country is racist and it is outspreading becoming more common in the U.S.

This pictures indicates that Martin Luther King Jr.'s efforts are being forgotten about. i agree with this because in today's society we still see the rejection towards the mixing of races.

His message is that he wants everyone to be treated equal and be together as one. Yet even though segregation is not a thing anymore it still exists in America. The law doesn't separate us we separate ourselves. Whites still want to be the supreme ones.

As the years go on, Martin Luther King Jr is starting to become less noticed. Especially in the African American culture. This man has done great things for the civil rights of people and he should be remembered and honored in the same way that he has always been.

This image is indicating that MLK JR picture is being wiped off by white paint. That symbolizes that MLK is being forgotten on what he has done in the past. I disagree with this because MLK is still a hero to this day, due to the fact that my school is surrounded by different ethnicity's.

I believe that the message conveyed in this image is that Dr. King's dream is being forgotten and people aren't even really celebrating all that he did for us. In 2018, we need Dr. King's message to be told all over the world because the racism and discrimination is rising yet again (never left). Dr. King is a huge part of history; he changed the United States for the best, but now nobody is really recognizing and appreciating all that he did.

The message behind the billboard of Dr. King is that it is referring to his famous speech " I have a dream ". Notice how the "M" in Dream is still unfinished which makes you wonder why? This is because there is still problems in today society regarding the discrimination against African-Americans which he addressed about in his speech.,

I believe that the image represents the fact that the generation now a days is not recognizing his dream. We have grown u in a time were our problems are not as significant as those when MLK was around. Since we are growing up in a time where inequality is not as severe as it was in the '60s we are not continuing his dream.

The image "I Have a Dream" has a letter that was not painted completely which probably means that the dream that MLK had was not fully completed. This can also have a every strong meaning in the community because of everything that has been happening lately.
Giovanni Barrios p.2

This image is probably trying to say that Martin Luther King's message is slowly fading away. People of color are slowly going away from dreaming and making it a reality of racism and hatred. This is going against everything he believed in. We are going back instead of going forward.

The image shows Dr Martin Luther Kings I have a dream quote being painted over " Dream". This could demonstrate that the dream Dr King once had is fading away. You could see this in today's world by seeing how the races are dividing and how not as many non white people go to colleges.

This billboard is indicating that MLK had a dream but it was unfinished. For instance, in his speech, he stated that he had a dream where the people will be judged by their demeanor and not from their skin color. In today's generation, many people are being discriminated because of the color of their skin. African Americans are viewed as criminals because the history continued from generation to generation. I agree that MLK's message was not finished because many people being misjudged by their color.

The above image shows Martin Luther King, Jr.'s face next to the uncompleted painting of the words "I have A Dream", a quote from his famous speech. I believe that the image is trying to show us that Mr.King's message is still not completed, or, in other words, we have not realized his dream to this day and have not fulfilled his goals mentioned in his speech. I also believe that the message is trying to convey that a lack of work is the reason for the sign being incomplete.

I believe that the message in the cartoon demonstrates how MLK is slowly being shown less importance. I disagree with this cartoon for multiple reasons. What this man did while being alive should never be forgotten, as he had a very positive impact in this country.
Valerie Mata (period 2)

I believe the message of this cartoon is that discrimination is starting to be shown in America. For example, Martin Luther King's speech was against discrimination but in the picture we see that his dream is fading away. Therefore, it shows that discrimination is starting to come back.

This cartoon publishes the idea that Dr. Martin Luther King Jr, legacy is being forgotten. I agree with this picture because when you really look around segregation is still occurring, there is still diversity, racism, and inequality, in which people may have forgotten how hard he worked to dismiss all the above.
Jacqueline Loaiza (per.2)

I think this picture is representing how people are starting to forget what he lived for and what hes done and his speech. Change hasn't happened a lot in todays society.

I believe that this image is trying to tell us about Dr. King's dream not being accomplished or as if his ideas are fading away due to white supremacy and racism still being a problem in this country. I agree with this image because like I said, racism still exists and many people don't talk about his dream anymore.
Ashley Cortez Per2

This represents how Martin Luther king was viewed a heroic figure in history. He started a movement in which he protested for equal rights. He wanted to end discrimination and dreamed that one day everyone would get along and unite as one.
Max Aparicio

I believe that this message is proclaiming that the dream of MLK was not fulfilled, that his dream has yet to be done. His dream was for equality for all colors of the human race, but in this day and age, I can see why it has yet to be fulfilled. There are still places were its not equal and will be probably never become equal.

I believe this cartoon indicates that they are trying to remind everyone the significance of his legacy because this day in age, not everyone remembers what he fought for.

This image to me represents the dream that was worthy of being put on a billboard but extremely disrespected by the caucasian race that it wasn't able to be completed. The memory of MLk is being respected in this century but it wasn't always respected and those times were tough for anyone of color. MLK did not die in vain but this image gives off the idea that his mission was incomplete.

This message is saying that MLK dream is fading away. Racism is still occurring in many places around the US. With white supremacy and police brutality MLK dream is not being heard.

The message says" I have a dream".Martin Luther King Jr was a powerful men that fought for his people.He had a dream that one day all the little black kids and white kids will all come together.So that we wouldnt have to live our life going to seperate movie theaters, schools,churches,and etc...He wanted to end racism .

what this is trying to say is that MLK did not finish what he started even though he was really close but could not finish and it is still left unfinished until someone continues and finished what he started

I think the cartoon is trying to tell us is that MLK had a dream for everyone he wanted for everyone to get along. And now that he's not here he doesn't want people to forget that he had a dream he wanted Everyone to get along.

The cartoon's meaning is that Martin Luther King is being forgotten. Another meaning to the cartoon is that all the accomplishments that he did are not being recognized anymore. I believe this because the cartoon is fading way.

This message is MLK with his “I have a Dream” speech title. I agree with this article because If Mr. King was still alive he would have something about this racism country we live in. But his dream is definitely dying and being step on because we let these things happen. I believe people have forgotten what Mr. King really wanted and his legacy.

The meaning of the this cartoon is that the dream Martin Luther had wasn't finished and so the billboard is only half finished not even the speech could be completely be understood by the right people in power.

The message of the article is to reflect on how Dr.Martin Luther king jr would feel about society in 2017. These past events include confederate statues being placed in Charlottesville, Va and a protest erupted. People were hurt like a woman who was killed because a white supremacist decided to take lives/ a life at the protest. Many other drastic situations like this would make Luther say "ENOUGH".

This cartoon shows that his dreams are disappearing because people have been fighting more an more and no is stopping it. Many people are trying to continue with his words he said to everyone so they wouldn't lose hope. I agree that we should keep on using his quotes every day and don't let hate eat you up.Why, because his words are true and you shouldn't erase something from the pass you bring it to the future.
