MARTIN LUTHER KING
Martin Luther King, the leader of the Negro struggle for equality, was born in Atlanta, Georgia, in the southern part of USA, on January 15, 1929. When he was 15 he went to college, in 1948 he entered a seminary in Philadelphia where he discovered the writings of the Indian leader Mohandas Gandhi. a few years later he received a doctoral degree from Boston University School of Theology. In Boston he met Coretta Scott, a pretty soprano singer, and he married her in June 1953. In 1954 he became the minister of a small Negro church in Montgomery, Alabama. There he became the leader of the first non - violent protest racial discrimination: the mass boycott of the Montgomery bus company. Dr.King's non violent ideas and techniques became famous and gave great strenght to the Negro movement for freedom. King was arrested more than 30 times, his family threatened, but he always remained faithful to his ideas. Sit-ins, boycotts, civil disobedience, strikes and marches were the methods of his struggle. In the summer of 1963 Dr.King led a great peaceful march for civil rights to Washington, DC: there were 250.000 people in the demonstration. As a consequence, in 1964 Congress passed the Civil Rights Act and in the same year King was awarded the Nobel Prize for Peace. In 1965 Congress passed the Voting Rights Act: the Negroes right to vote became more effective. In 1968 Martin Luther King started to organize another great march, " the poor people march" , to demand better jobs, low cost houses and welfare plans for the poor. So he went to Memphis, Tennessee, to encourage people there to join him. On April 4, after a long busy day, he was standing on the balcony of his
hotel room to get some fresh air before dinner. A few seconds later an assassin's bullet killed him.
