Introduction
Slavery in America was a very normal living condition in the 1800s. The slaves were taken from Africa by boats and taken to America. They were then taken to the slave market and sold. The slaves lacked rights such as freedom of movement, expression and the right to life. Slavery continued for many years and numerous people utilized their minds. In the 1860, there was a revolution that intended to free the slaves. Fortunately, President Abraham Lincoln ended slavery. However, the blacks had many issues still since they were very much poor compared to the whites. Also, they were seen as less of people and inferior since some of the rights they had. The whites always threatened and attacked them. Normally, they became members of whites club for instance the Ku Klux Klan. The society remained against Negros as they were seen as a wrong species. Training programs remained less compared to whites’ programs. Blacks also attended different schools from those of the whites. Numerous public places like parks and cinemas were stringent on blacks. Even at the oddest places, differences against blacks ere noticeable. For instance, toilets and stores for blacks were separate from those of the whites. This discrimination remained for many years until men like Martin Luther stood for the rights for black people. Therefore, this paper will present the life of a Nobel Laureate Prize Winner Martin Luther King, Jr.
