What difference did Martin Luther King Jr make?

wow really? u must not no alot about martin Luther kind lol heres what he didMartin Luther King, Jr. was an African-American clergyman who advocated social change through non-violent means. A powerful speaker and a man of great spiritual strength, he shaped the American civil rights movement of the 1950s and 1960s. King was pastor of the Dexter Avenue Baptist Church in Montgomery, Alabama from 1954-59. There he led blacks in the Montgomery bus boycott of 1955-56, an action inspired by the arrest of Rosa Parks when she refused to give up her seat on a public bus. Racial segregation on city buses was ruled unconstitutional in 1956; the boycott ended in success, and King had become a national figure. King returned to his home town of Atlanta in 1959 and became co-pastor with his father of the Ebenezer Baptist Church, a position he held until his death. On the 100th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation in 1963, King organized a march on Washington, D.C. that drew 200,000 people demanding equal rights for minorities. King won the 1964 Nobel Peace Prize, becoming at the time the youngest recipient ever. His writings included Stride Toward Freedom (1958, a history of the Montgomery bus boycott), Why We Can't Wait (1963) and Where Do We Go From Here? Chaos or Community (1967). King was shot to death by James Earl Ray in 1968 while visiting Memphis, Tennessee.King married Coretta Scott on 18 June 1953. The couple had four children: Yolanda (born 1955), Martin Luther III (b. 1957), Dexter (b. 1961), and Bernice (b. 1963)... He graduated from Morehouse College in 1948, then attended Crozer Theological Seminary (now part of the Colgate Rochester Divinity School) and Boston University, where he earned a Ph.D. in Systematic Theology in 1955.Dr. King joins Marian Anderson and other African American leaders in our loop on Black History Month.Other champions of non-violent resistance: Mohandas Gandhi and Henry David Thoreau.

Where are the original Freedom Writers at now?

The real freedom writers are all working toward their foundation. Many of them appeared as extras in the movie Freedom Writers with Hillary Swank. They all graduated and many went to college with the money they made when they published their books. One of the Freedom Writers Darrius Garrett; was portrayed in the movie as the character "Marcus". He is an author that has a poetry book out on amazon, B&N and other sites i even seen it on ebay as well as he wrote another Freedom Writer book called Diary of a Freedom Writer "The Experience" currently set for an April 21rst, 2013 release. I got home and goggled him as I heard him speak at a conference I attended in Sept. He delivered a remarkable inspirational speech.
