bus at the same time. In 1959 Him and his wife went on a pilgrimage in India to meet Mahatma Gandhi’s
family and at the same time He became co pastor at Dexter Avenue Baptist Church then in a years time

Martin made his own mark in history when in 1964 segregation was made illegal by the supreme
court, no longer were schools, jobs or transport segregated. Martin always Believed In nonviolent Protests
and out of the he got a great change in America.

In Conclusion, I think that martin Luther is great because if wasn’t for his determination and
perseverance Most school’s would be segregated and Racism would continue. To end this biography
I am going to tell you one of his famous quotes,
"Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that."
