So much has been written about Dr. King that only greatness can be said of him. He was born in January 1929. His father was a good southern pastor from Stockbridge, GA. Dr. King fought hard during the Civil Rights movement to bring about a change in our nation for the better. He spoke so eloquently to the masses about the rights of mankind regardless of his skin color. His lifetime brought hard fought battles trying to get people the right to be able to eat at the same lunch counter, ride the same bus, and use the same restrooms. Dr. King for his special efforts of doing so much for mankind received the Nobel Peace Prize. Dr. King's life was cut short by an assasins bullet in April 1968 at Memphis, TN. But his message continues today of a dream where men would be known not for their color but for their mind.
