Best Answer

The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. did not actually start the Civil Rights Movement. However, he became a widely popular leader of the movement, in part by leading protests at some of the hot spots in the South. Dr. King taught people to resist without violence, a tactic that swung great popular sympathy to the movement.
