Martin
Luther King, Jr.’s Life                                by
Jung    
Hi!   I am Martin
Luther King , Jr.   I was born in 1929.  In 1944 I finished high school and I went to
college.  In 1948 I became a minister.  In 1953 I married Coretta Scott.  
I led a
boycott of the buses in Montgomery, Alabama. 
Black people would not ride the buses because they could only sit at the
back of the bus.  The bus protest lasted
a year.  After that, blacks could  sit anywhere they want on the bus.  I decided to move back to Atlanta in 1960.  I led peaceful protests against white- only
waiting rooms, lunch counters and rest rooms. 
I led many marches for freedom.  In
1963 I gave my “I Have a Dream”  speech  to help black and white people live together.   In 1964
I won the Nobel Peace Prize.  In 1968 I died.
Do you know what made me famous?  I was
famous because I helped black and white people to live together in peace. 
The end
