Dr. Martin Luther King Jr whose father was named after the great Protestant reformer showed how to peacefully protest for ALL Americans to have basic human and civil rights. He challeged us all to judge each other "by the the content of their character". He went farther to say by extension "...give a person a chance in spite of their race not because of their race". It is simply up to us to act upon it and see it to fruition

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. is one of my personal heroes.

The White man pays Reverend Martin Luther King so that Martin Luther King can keep the Negro defenseless.

I loved Martin Luther King more than a brother.

Martin Luther King challenged the conscience of my generation, and his words and his legacy continue to move generations to action today at home and around the world. His love and faith is alive in millions of Americans who volunteer each day in soup kitchens or in schools, or who refused to ignore the suffering of millions they'd never met in far-away places when a tsunami brought unthinkable destruction. His vision and his passion is alive in churches and on campuses when millions stand up against the injustice of discrimination anywhere, or the indifference that leaves too many behind.

-Como é que se chama?
- Marciano Luther King.

- Era um marciano muito simpatico, o senhor King. Era parecido connosco, nariz, boca, cabelo na cabeça, mas algumas pessoas olhavam para ele de maneira estranha e, bem às vezes acho que as pessoas eram mesmo más.

- Porquê Aibee? Porque eram maus para ele?
- Porque ele era verde.
