Martin Luther King
Martin Luther King was a great man he was born on January 15,1929 in Atlanta.Martin luther king had a great family he was a very caring person he was always there for his wife and kids. Martin Luther King was influential because he did a speech that was called I have a dream today.Martin Luther King said in is speech that the black people needed to be treated the same like the whites that it was not fair that the black people got hot water to drink and the white people get cold water!!So when he said that speech called I have a dream the president decided that he was going to take the signs off that said black and whites only.
Martin Luther King Jr. died when he was only 39 years old.He was assassinated in April 4,1968 in Tennessee. He was supposed to make a speech that day but someone assassinated him. What Martin Luther King Jr.did to make him memorable was that he tried so hard for the blacks to be treated exactly like the whites.Martin Luther king was so important for his speech and for what he did for the blacks and of course he didn't say his speech because he wanted to be important but he did it for the blacks would get treated just like the whites.Something that made me read about Martin Luther King Jr. was that he knew that the white people would not like him because of what he was doing but he did not care he did what was right and tried his best to take those signs off that said black and whites only!
