Life of Martin Luther King Jr.


•Martin Luther King was a minister who believed that everyone should be treated the same, regardless of what they looked like. He believed that we should accept everyone for the people they are, and not judge them by how they look.
•Martin Luther King Jr. wanted to make changes in the laws of our country and knew that as a citizen of the United States he had certain rights that were being denied him and many other people like him.
Can you think of some things he wanted to change?
•Instead of just sitting around and complaining, he did something about it. He fought for his rights, but he did it peacefully. He believed that the best way to make a change was through peaceful protests like boycotts, sit ins, and marches.
