Martin Luther King Jr. was an American Baptist minister and activist who became the most visible spokesperson and leader in the civil rights movement from 1955 until his assassination in 1968.
Today we remember his life, his influence, his impact on the lives of people everywhere. Thank you Dr. King for your legacy, you still inspire us today.

It’s just mind-fucking-blowing to me that he was such a profound and powerful human rights advocate that he was actually assassinated by the forces of evil.
That is a “wow”.

And on the opposite side, how petty his enemies were. “Yeah, you want to ride the bus? We’re going to kill you for it!”
