Martin Luther King Jr Favorite Quote

This story is about how MLK faced segregation throughout his whole life, how he gave one of the best speeches in the whole world and how he was awarded the Noble Peace Prize.When Martin was a little boy he would face racism and segregation until he had enough of it and decided to stop it at once. So when Martin was a grown man he started to do protests and later on he was successful at the bus boycott because of the incident of Rosa Parks when she wouldn't give her seat up on the bus. Then on another day he lead a protest which was We Shall Over Come protest and there were lots and lots of people who were in this, but then Martin got arrested. In Oct 14,1964 Martin was given the Nobel Peace Prize for standing up to segregation through out his whole life. Also, he did a speech for non-violence because of all the violence that was happening around the country. And last, but not least he gave the most incredible speech that influenced everyone life.


My favorite quote was when Martin said that we shall over come our fears instead of running away from them and so that we can all come together as one whole united group.
