In November, 1962, Martin Luther King was arrested and sent to prison for demonstrating against segregation in Birmingham, Alabama.
Some other people did not agree with him(mostly whites) so they arrested him for violating a state law prohibiting boycotts.They thought if they arrested the leader it would stop the boycott
becuse of his protesting
Martin Luther King sided with the Prince because he didn't want any blood slaughter, but it turned out to be that the peasants revolted againsts the people so Martin Luther King sent a letter out to tell the Prince to stop the fighting and it did.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was jailed many times as he worked toward Human and Civil Rights for African-Americans. While locked up in a segregated jail in the south, King penned "Letter from A Birmingham Jail" an open letter that served as a call to action for peaceful non-violence against racial oppression and unjust laws.
The speech motivated others in regards to the need for change and sent encouragement to many toward working for federal legislation to help end racial discrimination.
He changed the future of all Americans by sticking up for his human rights, so that all black and white American's could mix. He set up two peacefull protests whilst doing this and also got sent to jail. Hope this help :)
Martin Luther King Jr. did a very good thing. Here's what happened. Rosa Parks was an old woman who had worked very hard that day and was very tired so she sat down in the front of the bus. But when a stupid white guy came she was told to move and she was too tired. So she didn't. so the bus driver came and demanded for her to move. she was still too tired. so different white guy called the cops,but she still wouldn't move so she was sent to jail. Some number of years later, she was released because of Martin Luther King Jr. He had led alot of marches against segregation. Soon Black people and white people could be friends.THE END.P.S.-look up those 2 people for more details.

After killing Martin Luther King Jr., James Earl Ray was arrested, tried, and convicted of the crime. He was sentenced to 99 years in prison. Ray later attempted to retract his guilty plea and claimed he was set up as part of a larger conspiracy, but these claims were not widely accepted. He died in prison in 1998.
