His involvement in the civil rights movement was started when he heard that Rosa Parks wouldn’t give up her seat on a bus to a white person. He inspired many people of all races and ethic groups to help in a peaceful protest. On August 29, 1963 he made his most famous speech “I Have a Dream”. He made many speeches for his “dream”. (Mostly for African-Americans) from this he was the youngest person to receive the Nobel Piece Prize. Sadly he was assassinated on April 4 1968, in Memphis, Tennessee.
