Martin Luther King Jr. is probably one of the greatest leaders in world history. His non-violent protests helped the Civil Rights movement a great deal. He was inspired by Gandi to use non-violence against segregation and prejudice. He was put in jail 20 times, was stabbed in the chest, had his house bombed, and was eventually assasinated, but his beleifs and his amazing speeches stayed with the american people, who still recognize him as the greatest of the leaders of the Civil Rights Movement.
