Explanation:

Repetition is the picture of language that occurs when the same word or phrase is repeated successively, at the beginning of consecutive sentences, periods, or in verses. Repetition is meant to emphasize and make the message more expressive.

In Matin Luther King's speech, the phrase "I Have a Dream" was repetitive at the beginning of several paragraphs, so we may conclude that the language figure called repetition was used by King during the speech. Repetition was used to accentuate King's dream of equality among all people.
