Dr. King was a revolutionary during his time. He is widely known for his teachings on nonviolent civil disobedience. These practices were a way to fight the injustices that were being placed upon African-Americans during the 1950s and 60s. This time period was known as the civil rights movement. We take this day to remember Dr. King for the visionary that he was.
Thank you Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.!
