Martin Luther King inspired me in many different ways. A little information on Martin Luther King, he was an African American who wanted to be treated equally and stop segregation and discrimination.

Martin Luther King’s most famous speech was the “ I have a Dream” speech which he said in front of two hundred and fifty thousand Americans at the Lincoln Memorial.

Now Martin Luther King did not just learn the speech in one day and he did not always have successful marches. It was his hard work and determination that got him where he was. His speech made a lot of racism go away in the USA but not

    Kristopher, I enjoyed reading your discussion post. What I believe made Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. such an active speaker was his ardor. He wanted peace in a world filled with much hatred and anger. Dr. King appeals successfully to the people; by preaching peace, love, and unity. He persuaded his audience to see the future- how life could be if freedom would happen. King gave the people something to hope for; how the children of the future could unite as one.…

    Martin Luther King Jr. is a name that everyone in America now a days should recognize who he was and some of the things he did. The mid 1900’s were not the brightness for both blacks or whites in the country as segregation was still around but, 1950’s to 1960’s those who were segregated were starting to open their eyes and release their thoughts. Martin Luther King Jr. was considered the leader of these efforts and this did not go down unpunished. He was arrested numerous times however he was showing no fear during these arrests.

    Dr. King was a well-known civil rights activist, he left behind many examples within his speeches of how he believed we as a community could change the world for the better. He worked diligently to end segregation and reduce the amount of hatred. Even today we still experience discrimination in our everyday lives but not to the extent during his time. Change is hard for people to accept no matter how small or how large. In Dr. King’s I Have a Dream speech, Letter from Birmingham Jail, and Why We Can’t Wait he vividly expresses his feelings towards the problems facing his community and gives solutions to solve them.…

    I believe that our nation has finally come to understand what Martin Luther King Jr.s dream actually meant. However, because we understand this doesn’t mean we’ve all acted to make it become true. I believe that it’s hard for some people to forgive and adapt to the new ways of life. In Martin’s speech he says “One day all White and Black children will One day hold hands”. In order to reach this goal I think a cycle will have to be completed to make people get rid of their prejudice thoughts and hateful actions.…

    At the march, all of the people listened to many musicians, speakers, and watched people perform. Martin Luther King gave his speech, and A. Philip Randolph gave his speech. As these two speakers gave their speech, they changed many looks on the march. Martin Luther King’s speech was based on his dream that he had. He spoke about his dream often, and decided he would share it with people. Even when people told him to not speak of the dream, he still did. In 1964, he was awarded a Nobel Peace Prize for his speech.…

    Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was an amazing leader and activist for the American civil rights movement. He did not only stand up for African American rights he stood for equality and love. Through the tuff trials and tribulations, he marched with love and for one main purpose which was for to unite all creeds and have equal right despite the pigment of our skin. What Dr. Martin Luther King Jr did was influential, incomprehensible and inspiring to see and hear about. Even though some of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr was viewed as unjust I would like to reiterate It was more than necessary to make a bold statement. We will not give in and we will continue to peaceful protest until we have equal and just rights just as Caucasian individuals. From my perspective, if I was in a position such Dr. Martin Luther King Jr was I would choose civil disobedience also.…
