C9-3 The Legacy of Martin Luther King Jr.

Today on CNN there were many articles detailing Martin Luther King Jr.'s achievements and remembering the man who changed civil rights in America. King has a holiday and many buildings and statues dedicated in his name for his work towards equality. Though his actions were considered controversial during the time, we now commemorate his hard work and dedication to the cause. The spread of pictures that I looked at described his entire life and the struggles he faced. If Martin Luther King Jr. was here today he'd be looking at a very different world with a new set of struggles and problems. We should all take Martin Luther King Jr.'s outlook and determination into consideration as we face our own daily problems and treat each other with equality and support. The problems in today's society and politics could be solved if we all took King's approach toward life.
