How Was I inspired By Martin Luther King Jr 

# data[].attributes.body
Martin Luther King Jr’s worldview was different in ways to others back then. He was a Christian that wanted equality and peace. Lots of people back then wanted power and control and didn’t care about religion as much, they didn’t care about peace. There were a lot of wars and fights in the early – mid 19th century and this showed that the government didn’t care about peace.

Martin Luther King Jr found that he had to lose his fear of death, he knew that he was going to be killed and he had to forget about that so that he could continue with his passion. Martin Luther King Jr lost his life from doing what he loved.

He made his dreams become a reality by going out of his way to go to meeting. And go to talks so that he could show his passion and inspire others do follow in his footsteps and help make a change on the world. Now we can see that because of him people are treated equally, this was shown when the first Black American President (Obama) was elected.

He was told that if he continued on his path of being a civil rights activist he could be arrested, abused and killed. But these didn’t scare him because all he wanted to do was change the way the government sees people and how everyone should be treated equally.

He challenged the status quo through his non violence way on life. He always wanted there to be no violence and peace in the world, this was shown through how he acted and treated others. When he got some criticism about what he was doing he would try to turn it into a positive. He always wanted to challenge what the government wanted everyone to do and try to make a change. He just wanted to be like Gandhi and provide peace to the world.

He encouraged a more open minded view on people by the words he said and the way that he inspired people to make a change. This gave a lot of people hope about the future of equality and how people should treat one another. Martin wanted black’s and white’s to be treated the same way and have the same opportunities in life. He was inspired by Gandhi and wanted to be just like Gandhi.

Martin Luther King Jr's i have a dream speech

Martin Luther King Jr wasn’t perfect because of some negative feedback, some feedback really put him down and made him not happy. Although he could make this feedback positive it still put him down that some people didn’t like what he was doing.

The most inspiring thing that I have found about Martin Luther King Jr was that he was a black American in the times where black Americans were racially abused and didn’t have many rights. It inspired me that although he had these troubles he was able to push through the racism and look at the positives in life. I thought It was amazing that whenever he heard something bad happen he would speak out and give his opinion on what was happening. He always thought outside the box and really gave black American’s hope about their future and that they could become anything they want no matter what colour their skin was. It was just so inspiring that he could think outside the box and just show his feelings about anything to the world and not worry about what people cared about what he did. He use to look at the negative feedback he got and tried to turn it into a positive. He was just a really inspiring guy.
