Between lines 82–87 the effect of Martin Luther King mentioning his Nobel Prize is to explain why he is against the Vietnam war after people started questioning his opinion on the ending of the Vietnam war. In his speech, he addresses how the poor people in Vietnam have been forced to take part in the war as their houses are being torched leaving them homeless. The mentioning of his Nobel prize is to justify his commission for "the brotherhood of man." which made civil rights to condemn him for his speech as the war was against his commission.
