Martin Luther King Jr. was a Baptist minister from Atlanta who became the most recognized leader of the American civil rights movement. From the Montgomery Bus Boycott to the March on Washington, where he delivered his “I Have a Dream” speech, King championed nonviolent protest as the path to justice and equality. His leadership helped bring about the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965, and in 1964 he became the youngest person at that time to receive the Nobel Peace Prize. Assassinated in 1968, King left a legacy of courage, faith and moral conviction that continues to inspire generations.
