Martin Luther King, Jr. was an American clergyman, activist and prominent
leader in the African-American Civil Rights Movement whose methods were similar
to Mahathma Ghandhi's. He used nonviolent methods to fight for the advancement
of civil rights in the USA.

Martin Luther King, Jr was born on January 15, 1929, in Atlanta, Georgia. He
was an excellent student and entered Morehouse College in Atlanta, Georgia, when
he was only 15 years old. He has become a national icon in the history of modern
American liberalism.

A Baptist minister, King became a civil rights activist early in his career. As a
result of Rosa Parks refusal to leave her seat for a white passenger, King led the
1955 Montgomery Bus Boycott. He also helped found the Southern Christian
Leadership Conference (SCLC) in 1957, serving as its first president. King's efforts
led to the 1963 March on Washington, where King delivered his "I Have a Dream"
speech. There, he expanded American values to include the vision of a color blind
society and established his reputation as one of the greatest orators in American
history.

In 1964, King became the youngest person to receive the Nobel Peace Prize for
his work to end racial segregation and racial discrimination through civil
disobedience and other nonviolent means. By the time of his death in 1968, he had
refocused his efforts on ending poverty and stopping the Vietnam War. King was
assassinated on April 4, 1968, in Memphis, Tennessee. He was posthumously
awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1977 and Congressional Gold Medal
in 2004; Martin Luther King, Jr. Day was established as a U.S. federal holiday in
1986.
