Jackie Robinson played Major League Baseball and became a civil rights activist after his 10 year long career with the Dodgers - which broke the assumed colour barrier in national sport. Martin Luther King Jr was a civil rights activist who gave one of the greatest speeches of the 20th century to 250,000 people in a march demanding an end to racism. Basically Martin Luther King was a famous civil rights activist and Robinson adapted to become one after his notorious baseball career.
