Bombs in your home, threatening people everywhere this is what Martin Luther King had to endure. This civil rights activist was nonviolent and had millions of people around the world support him and his beliefs.
Martin Luther King Jr. (1929–1968) was a Baptist minister and the most well known leader of the American civil rights movement. He stood for nonviolent civil disobedience, he led historic campaigns for desegregation, voting rights, and labor equality, shaping U.S. history before his assassination in 1968.
He was a civil rights activist who stood up for segregation against people all over the world he fought for equality, and that affected people all over the world he fought for nonviolent resistance and to end dismantle systemic racism, end legal segregation, and combat economic inequality. Martin Luther King had values of bravery, selflessness, and standing up for others. This caused him to act in the American civil rights movement and many other things that help people all over the world, not just in America do all sorts of things.
In conclusion Martin Luther King's most potent character trait was his moral courage. He survived almost 30 jail sentences and bombings to his home, and he still was peaceful. I look up to this person because if someone bombed my home, I would not be peaceful anymore and I don’t think many people would.
