This paper
looks at the life of Martin Luther King, Jr. as a Southerner who was a legendary figure from his generation and who believed that the wall of
segregation could be demolished with the power of love. It looks at how he was an American clergyman, a Nobel Peace Prize winner, and one of the key leaders of the American
Civil Rights Movement advocating non-violent protest. It shows how he was successful in his challenges during the 1950s and 1960s to end segregation and
racial discrimination by persuading many white Americans to support the cause of civil rights in the United States. He was assassinated in 1968, only to be remembered as man who had enough willpower to
protest in the struggle for racial justice.
