Marting Luther King

Recently, I read a famous speech by Marting Luther King "I have a Dream." It's really hard for us to imagine taht black people couldn't go to the same school with whites at that time. They even couldn't sit on the same seats. People in that time were all took these rules for granted that whites were highly privileged.

But these so called rules were broken down by the black leader-Marting Luther King. in spite of the difficulities that he had encountered, he won the support from both whites and blacks in the end. He delivered his creed to the public through the nonviolent resistance movement successfully. In 1963, Dr. King was given the Nobel Peace Prize as the reward of his toil and hardship.

However, he was shot and killed by the radical in 1968. Although he was dead, thereis no denying that Marting Luther King was one of the great people in the U.S. He also makes me realized one thing-nothing great can be achieved without enthusiasm.
