The most influential black leader

​Take a guess at who you think it is. If you ever heard “I had a dream” speech, you know who I’m talking about. The man who walked so leaders like me can crawl.

The man with the name who was changed from Michael. And I’m not talking about myself. I’m talking about Martin Luther King Jr. 

He is known for his contributions to the American Civil Rights Movement. And we all know how important this movement was for us. It opened up opportunities for us that we didn’t have before.

King participated in these protests in the south. The south was worst than the north because of how they weren’t free states during slavery. These protests were only 70-80 years ago. 

Through peaceful protests, King stopped racial segregation and discrimination. Before black peoples couldn’t even drink from the same water fountain as white people. Bu he was able to bring us all together. 

Now it’s your turn to leave a stamp in history.
