MLK

Martin Luther King, in my opinion, was a great man. He stood up for what he believed even though he didn't quite know what he was getting into. He was a little known preacher who became the face of African Americans during the Civil Rights Movement. The people believed in him and listened to him. The bus boycott, led by him, was a huge success. He didn't know what to do at first and ended up leading a huge successful event. He fought for a great cause clear up until he was assassinated. His speeches were very motivating, especially, the famous, "I have a dream." He didn't live to see it fulfilled, but it did happen. His dream came true. It was all because of his courage and desire to fight for minority rights that they are what they are today. He was a wonderful man and is well missed.
