I want to ask you a question, and that is, what is in your life's blueprint?
2
This is the most important and crucial period of your lives, for what you do now and what you
3
decide now at this age may well determine which way your life shall go.
4
And whenever a building is constructed, you usually have an architect who draws a blueprint.
5
And that blueprint serves as the pattern, as the guide, as the model for those who are to build the building.

And a building is not well erected without a good sound and solid blueprint.
7
Now each of you is in the process of building the structure of your lives.
8
And the question is whether you have a proper, a solid, and a sound blueprint.
9
And I want to suggest some of the things that should be in your life's blueprint.
10
Number one in your life's blueprint should be a deep belief in your own dignity, your own worth, and your own somebodiness.
11
Don't allow anybody to make you feel that you are nobody.
12
Always feel that you count.
13
Always feel that you have worth.
14
And always feel that your life has ultimate significance.
15
Now that means that you should not be ashamed of your color.

Don't be ashamed of your color.
19
Don't be ashamed of your biological features.

Neither do you need to process your hair to make it appear straight.
23
I have good hair and it is as good as anybody else's hair in the world.
24
And we've got to believe that.
25
Now in your life's blueprint, be sure that you have that a principle of somebody.
26
Secondly, in your life's blueprint, you must have as a basic principle, the determination to achieve excellence in your various fields of endeavor.
27
You're going to be deciding as the days and the years unfold what you will do in life, your life's work will be.
28
And once you discover what it will be, set out to do it and to do it well.
29
And I say to you, my young friends, that doors are opening to each of you.
30
Doors of opportunity are opening to each of you that were not open to your mothers and to your fathers.
31
And the great challenge facing you is to be ready to enter these doors as they open.
32
Ralph Waldo Emerson, the great essayist, said in a lecture back in 1871 that if a man can write a better book or preach a better sermon or make a better mousetrap than his neighbor,
33
even if he builds his house in the woods, the world will make a beaten path to his door.
34
That hadn't always been true, but it will become increasingly true.
35
So I would urge you to study hard, to burn the midnight ore.
36
I would say to you, don't drop out of school.
37
And I understand all of the sociological reason why we often drop out of school.
38
But I urge you, in spite of your economic plight, In spite of the situation that you are forced to live so often with intolerable conditions, stay in school.

41
Don't set out to be just a good Negro doctor, a good Negro lawyer, a good Negro school teacher, a good Negro preacher, a good Negro barber, a beautician, a good Negro skilled laborer,
42
sent out to do a good job and do that job so well that the living, the dead, or the unborn couldn't do it any better.
43
If it followed your lot to be a street sweeper, sweep streets like Michelangelo painted pictures, sweep streets like Beethoven composed music,
44
Sweep streets like Liam T.
45
Price sings before the Metropolitan Opera.
46
Sweep streets like Shakespeare wrote poetry.
47
Sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will have to pause and say, here lived a great street sweeper who swept his job where?

54

55
Don't allow anybody to pull you so low as to make you hate them.
56
Don't allow anybody to cause you to lose your self-respect to the point that you do not struggle for justice.
57
However young you are, you have a responsibility to seek to make your nation a better nation in which to live.
58
You have a responsibility to seek to make life better for everybody.
59
And so you must be involved in the struggle for freedom and justice.
60

61
we all can do and that we all must do and we must not give
62
ourselves to those things which will not solve our problems you've heard the word
63
nonviolent and you've heard the word violent I happen to believe in non-violence we struggle with this
64
method with young people and adults alike all over the South and we have won some significant victories and we've got
65
to struggle with it all over the north because the problems are as serious in the north as they are in the South.
66
But I believe as we struggle with these problems, we've got to struggle with them with a method that can be militant, but at the same time does not destroy life or property.
67
And so our slogan must not be burn, baby, burn.
68
It must be Bill, baby, Bill, organized knife.
69
Yes, our slogan must be, learn baby learn so that we can earn baby earn.

83

Übungstipps
Beim Englisch Shadowing ist es wichtig, den Ton und die Geschwindigkeit der Rede so genau wie möglich zu imitieren. Die Rede von Martin Luther King Jr. ist kraftvoll und gefühlvoll, was bedeutet, dass Sie beim Nachsprechen auf die Betonung und Pausen achten sollten. Hier sind einige spezifische Tipps für das Shadow Speak:
- Hören Sie sich die Rede mehrmals an, um sich mit dem Sprachrhythmus vertraut zu machen..
- Versuchen Sie, jeden Abschnitt der Rede in kleinen Teilen zu wiederholen, um sicherzustellen, dass Sie die Aussprache und den Tonfall genau erfassen.
- Achten Sie auf die emotionalen Höhen und Tiefen der Rede und versuchen Sie, diese in Ihre eigene Stimme zu integrieren.
- Nehmen Sie sich selbst auf und hören Sie sich die Aufnahmen an, um Verbesserungsmöglichkeiten zu identifizieren.
- Praktizieren Sie regelmäßig, um Ihre Vertrautheit mit den Wörtern und Phrasen zu erhöhen und sie flüssiger auszusprechen.
Um Ihre Fähigkeiten im shadowspeak weiter zu verbessern, können Sie diese Technik auch mit anderen Reden und englischsprachigen Inhalten anwenden, die Sie ansprechen. Eine Vielzahl von Quellen wird Ihnen helfen, Ihre sprachlichen Fähigkeiten stetig zu erweitern und zu verfeinern.
Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?
Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
