Subject:OT: Where is "I have a dream" speech audio clip?

I’m putting together an “amateur” video and would like to include a few historic audio clips. For example, Martin Luther King’s “I have a dream” speech or Roosevelt’s “The only thing we have to fear, is fear itself” speech, or JFK’s “We choose to go to the moon” speech.

Where can I find these audio files? I did find the MLK speech at https://archive.org, but I'm looking for more to choose from.

Did you try Google? Pretty much anything you could want is on YouTube these days. There are numerous ways to extract the audio from a YouTube file.

Do a little Googling.

MLK's "I Have A Dream" is actually protected by copyright (and his estate strongly enforces it) - that's why you generally won't see or hear the speech in its entirety.
