Martin Luther King, Jr. was an American clergyman, activist and prominent leader in the
African-American Civil Rights Movement whose methods were similar to
MahathmaGhandhi's. He used nonviolent methods to fight for the advancement of civil
rights in the USA.

Martin Luther King, Jr was born on January 15, 1929, in Atlanta, Georgia. He was an
excellent student and entered Morehouse College in Atlanta, Georgia, when he was
only 15 years old. He has become a national icon in the history of modern American
liberalism.

A Baptist minister, King became a civil rights activist early in his career. As a result of
Rosa Parks refusal to leave her seat for a white passenger, King led the 1955
Montgomery Bus Boycott. He also helped found the Southern Christian Leadership
Conference (SCLC) in 1957, serving as its first president. King's efforts led to the 1963
March on Washington, where King delivered his "I Have a Dream" speech. There, he
expanded American values to include the vision of a color blind society and established
his reputation as one of the greatest orators in American history.

In 1964, King became the youngest person to receive the Nobel Peace Prize for his
work to end racial segregation and racial discrimination through civil disobedience and
other nonviolent means. By the time of his death in 1968, he had refocused his efforts
on ending poverty and stopping the Vietnam War. King was assassinated on April 4,
1968, in Memphis, Tennessee. He was posthumously awarded the Presidential Medal
of Freedom in 1977 and Congressional Gold Medal in 2004; Martin Luther King, Jr. Day
was established as a U.S. federal holiday in 1986.
