This paper discusses Martin Luther King, Jr. History is indeed made up of critical events which frame our future and eminent leaders who activate our destiny. Martin Luther King's offering to our history places him in this supreme position. In his short life, Martin Luther King was instrumental in helping us recognize and reform those unspeakable faults which were tarnishing the name of America. The events which took place in and around his life were earth shattering, for they depicted an America which was malicious and quite opposite from America as we see it today. It is a testament to the eminence of Martin Luther King Jr. that almost every major city in the U.S. has a street or school named after him. It is a measure of how severely his credentials are misunderstood that most of them are located in black neighborhoods.
