The Legacy of Martin Luther King

Martin Luther King
Since the re-election of Barack Obama in the last month of November, it is relevant to refer the historical facts inherent to the African-American Civil Rights Movement, from 1955 to 1968.
            Martin Luther King, the most prominent figure of this movement and the racial discrimination against African American people, was a man whose actions didn’t involve essentially any specification of his profession as a clergyman but a pure altruism and a thoughtful Activism.
            On 14th October 2012, it made 48 years since Martin Luther King II won the Peace Noble Price. His actions had a large contribution in the history of the United States of America, having made a reenactment of the values introduced in the Declaration of Independence.
            However, this man hadn’t only contributed to the modeling of the ideas of a nation. Whole the world recognizes today the glory of Martin Luther King.

    M. L. King is one of the most remarkable American personalities that has helped shaping the perception and effectiveness of Human and Civil Rights in America and worldwide. It is also impossible not to see Obama as the living and actual fulfilment of King's dreams and fights. Well done!
