Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was a leading figure in the civil rights movement. He helped organize protests and marches across the South during the 1960s to bring attention to injustices faced by African-Americans, advocated for better working conditions and educational opportunities for all people of color, and called on citizens to create a more equitable society for everyone. MLK played an instrumental role in helping secure passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which outlawed discrimination on the basis race or color in employment, schools, and businesses inviting public accommodations. He continued to speak out for justice even in wake of this monumental victory, as he pushed for further advancements in equal opportunity initiatives such as his widely renowned “Poor People’s Campaign.” Sadly enough despite his tremendous efforts advocating equality MLK's life ultimately ended tragically when he was assassinated on April 4th ,1968.The memory & legacy will always live especially with those that strive continue pursue his dream everyday . #MLKMuseum#CivilRightsMovement

Martin Luther King Jr. was a leader of the civil rights movement who was remembered for advancing civil rights through nonviolence and love. He came to prominence with the success of the Montgomery bus boycott in 1955 and he founded the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) which organized nonviolence-based campaigns across the south, including protests against segregation and inequality in voting rights, public accommodations, employment opportunities and educational access. He was assassinated in 1968 but his legacy continues to inspire activists today.
