Which statement does not characterize Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech? It openly criticized the governor of Alabama. It pointed out racial problems in the South but ignored racial injustice in the North. It supported the peaceful congregation of peoples of all races and religions. It invoked the power and symbolism of the American dream.

The statement that MLK's "I Have a Dream Speech" pointed out racial problems in the South but ignored racial injustice in the North is not true. Although the speech focused more greatly on the injustices in the South it also recognized the injustice, oppression, and poverty that existed in the North.

I believe the answer is: It pointed out racial problems in the South but ignored racial injustice in the North.

The 'i had a dream' speech by Martin Luther King was aimed to bring equality to all race and ethnicity across the country, both north and the south.
It highlight the economic disparity between racial minorities and majority in united states, which limit potential development for the minorities.
