A large part of why the Reformation gained so much steam was because the put upon and forgotten and abused had suffered under the apathy of the Catholic Church for so long. Seeing the principals of the Reformation relating to the uplifting of their own needs was a crucial point that carried the movement into the modern age.
.*Martin Luther King Was A Priest From The Renaissance Who Started The Protestant Reformation And Martin Luther King Was A Leader In The American Civil Rights.!
no. Martin Luther was the first voice in the Protestant Reformation, Dr. King was a civil rights leader. Difference of about 500 years.
Martin Luther (1483-1546) was the founder of the religious denomination called Lutheranism, and he sparked what is called the Protestant Reformation. Luther was a priest in the Catholic Church in Germany, but he objected to some of the pope's decisions and was excommunicated. Many people in Germany agreed with him and followed him when he started a new religious denomination, now called Lutheranism. People in other countries also broke away from the Catholic Church and what is known as the Protestant Reformation began. Martin Luther King Jr. (1929-1968), who was leader in the Civil Rights Movement in the United States, was named after him.
The modern civil rights movement peaked with the March on Washington in what year?
While most Protestant Christians, and I imagine all Lutherans, would be pleased for there to be a "Martin Luther" day, there is regrettably no such holiday. Martin Luther, in spite of the pivotal role he played in history, with the publishing of his "95 theses" in 1517 (which started the Protestant Reformation) has no national holiday name for him. The Canadian Stock Market is closed for a variety of holidays, though. And there are four U.S. holidays in which while they aren't closed, they advise that securities traded in U.S. currency may be affected. The four U.S. holidays are Thanksgiving, Independence Day, Memorial Day and Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. (As an odd footnote to this question, it so happens that the late Civil Rights leader, the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., was named after Martin Luther of the Protestant Reformation.)

The Reformation had significant political impacts, leading to conflicts between Catholics and Protestants and the rise of nation-states with different religious orientations.
