Martin Luther King was a black minister(牧师), who became a great leader of the civil rights movement(民权运动) in the 1950s and 1960s.

King was born on January 15, 1929. in Atlanta, Georgia. When he was young, he was strongly influenced by Thoreau and Indian leader Mahatma Gandhi’s idea of non-violent resistance(非暴力不合作). Having received a Ph. D (Doctor of Philosophy) from Boston University, he became a political and religious leader of the non-violent civil rights movement in 1955. On August 28, 1963, he led over 250,000 Americans on a march in Washington D.C. to fight for the Civil Rights Law (民权法) and delivered his best known speech “I Have a Dream”. The “dream” is a dream of brotherly love and equality for the Black and White. As a result, he was awarded the Nobel Prize for peace in 1964, but he was murdered four years later.

Though he died, he was greatly respected and loved by the Americans, both the white and the black. By vote of Congress in 1968, the third Tuesday of every January is now a holiday in Luther King’s honour. He lives in people’s hearts forever.
