As a Muslim being raised in America, I feel as if I have been looked at differently due to my religion and ethnicity because people in the world do not believe in understanding other people's cultures and religious beliefs. Martin Luther King Jr. gave all of us hope in the restored faith in humanity and how we can be equal in a way without being looked at differently for our race, nationality, ethnicity, and religious beliefs. We should continue to fight for our rights as humans in America and all over the world to show that we are united together and not separated by a skin color. ]]> 2021-09-14 01:23:39 UTC https://padlet.com/jennarammouni1/dz8ai31741q6qtm/wish/1737825481 jennarammouni1 https://padlet.com/jennarammouni1/dz8ai31741q6qtm/wish/1737829381 Martin Luther King Jr. wrote the "Letter from Birmingham Jail" while he was serving time behind bars.
