King tested dream refrain in Rocky Mount North Carolina
In Rocky Mount North Carolina Martin Luther King Jr tested the phrasing for the I Have a Dream line nine months before the March on Washington addressing a crowd of about 2000. He spoke of former slaves and former slave owners meeting at the table of brotherhood. Scholars had thought the first use was in Detroit in June 1963.
