Martin Luther King Jr. and the Civil Rights War

Dr. King was a very good man he fought for the biggest American war. He wanted his people to be free from the whites so they did many very strong things to make the whites lose the war they would never win. He was born on January 15, 1929 and died on April 4, 1968 in his 39 years alive he was one of the most inspiring people in the world. He was tired of being bullied from the whites because they just got done being in slavery for almost 300 hundred years. He had just gotten out of college when he saw that Rosa Parks had not gotten out of the seat on the bus for the white man and saw how she got treated. He thought it would be a better to help millions of black then just himself so he joined in the walks and started to speech out at many different places. So he was going to help them get out of trouble with whites so after many years of struggle they would finally get free from the whites to get all of the human born with rights back. Many blacks were killed for no reason but they didn't do it for them only they would do it for each other and their kids they wanted to be free and they would do anything to get it.
