Info:
Martin Luther King, Jr. was born on this day in 1929. His lifelong goal was to bring about social, political and economic equality for blacks. In the quest for his ideals, he became one of the greatest civil rights leaders of the 20th century. A Baptist minister (as were his father and grandfather before him), he preached 'nonviolent resistance' to achieve full civil rights for all. Leading the African-American struggle for equality through nonviolent demonstrations was what earned him the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964.
