Martin Luther King, Jr. was an American clergyman, activist and prominent leader in the
African-American Civil Rights Movement whose methods were similar to Mahathma Ghandhi'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.
