  Five score years ago a great American in whose symbolic shadow we stand today signed the Emancipation Proclamation. This momentous decree is a great beacon - a light of hope to millions of Negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. It came as a joyous daybreak to end the  long night of their captivity. But 100 years later the Negro still is not free. One hundred years later the  life of the Negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination.  One hundred years later the Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of  material prosperity. One hundred years later the Negro is still languished in the corners of American  society and finds himself in exile in his own land. So we’ve come here today to dramatize a shameful  condition.

Select two ways the author uses Paragraph 2 to convey his purpose for the speech. 

a)

By focusing on the state of America 100 years after the Emancipation proclamation was signed

b)

By outlining how African Americans can be freed.

c)

By highlighting the the economic and employment inequalities that existed in America

d)

By condemning racism and all forms of segregation.
