Martin Luther King, Jr.

by David

Martin Luther King Jr. was born in 1929, in Atlanta, Georgia. He went to elementary, high school, and college in Atlanta, Georgia. He was a peacekeeper. He helped pepole. There were certain rules then like Whites rode in the front of the bus and blacks rode in the back. The rules weren't fair. This needed to change.

Martin was a Minister. He visited sick people to make them feel better. He worked at a church. In church, the rules didn’t matter. The color of people didn’t matter.

Martin Luther King Jr. died in 1968. He helped all kinds of people. Martin fought with words. Now some people get along. He was awesome!! He made a difference. The person who wrote this is a peacekeeper inspired by Martin Luther King Jr.
