Martin Luther King, Malcolm X And Rodolfo Gonzales

In this world, there are a lot of people who showed great courage and tried to make the world a better place. Among these people, one of them is Martin Luther King Jr. He made the world a better place for black citizens by doing non-violence movements and marched the way to freedom.

many people still did not want to change. It took a strong leader, a person who believed in peace and justice for blacks, and Martin Luther King Jr. was that man.

Martin Luther King Jr. was a Baptist minister and social activist, who led the Civil Rights Movement in the United States from the mid-1950s until his death by assassination in 1968.

Martin Luther King Jr. is one of the most famous civil rights activists in the history of the United States. He gave several important speeches and promoted non-violent protests. His most famous speech was “I Have A Dream”, around a quarter of a million patrons, black and white, attended this empowering speech at the March on Washington on August 28, 1963. The reason his speech was vastly successful in the movement against segregation and injustice was because of its repetitiveness.

America stands for equality, freedom, and choice, but upon looking into the history behind America the everlasting struggle of racism, bigotry, and inequality are revealed. Through the 1950s to the 1970s, the fight for civil rights by African Americans was prominent throughout America. Schools, restaurants, and all public facilities were segregated, African Americans were blocked from voting through literacy tests and poll taxes, and The KKK, a white supremacist group, would lynch African American men. The need for the immediate cease of these practices and the desire for equality gave way to the Civil Rights Movement. Leaders and groups arose from this movement, such as Martin Luther King Jr, Malcolm X, and the Black Panther Party. The overall goal was to achieve rights but there were two significantly different methods of achieving this goal, non-violent civil disobedience and “black power”. The shift from non-violent civil disobedience to “black power” was caused by the emotional toll of being complacent during personal attack and the truth that immediate change calls upon the use of force, and the result of the shift was the further spread of violence.

Martin Luther King, Jr. and Lyndon B. Johnson demonstrated unimaginable leadership skills in an effort to accomplish their respective agendas. Through the use of moral leadership, King would rise to become the head of the Civil Rights Movement by means of civil disobedience and nonviolent resistance. MLK began as a Baptist Minister, but after seeing the difference he could make in the world, decided to stand up for what he felt was right. Johnson, on the other hand, used political leadership in order to make a name for himself as President of the United States. LBJ was willing to do whatever it took to accomplish his goals, even if it meant going against the Southern Democrats who had elected him to political office. One of these risks

We all hope to have, and understand, the characteristics that an amazing leader possesses. There are many great leaders, spread throughout our history. Malcolm X, George Washington, and Martin Luther King Jr. are just a few people who were blessed with what it takes to step up and become true leaders. By example, some of the other fantastic qualities of leadership also make up two remarkable people: Nelson Mandela and Suleiman the Magnificent. They exhibited many leadership-like characteristics, like them being feared yet admired by their people, or people from other countries, or the fact that they were also very intelligent, and tactical.

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Huey P. Newton stood up and fought for justice, equality and freedom for our people in this country. Huey Percy Newton was born February 17, 1942 and died August 22, 1989. He was an African-American political and urban activist who, along with Bobby Seale, co-founded the Black Panther Party for Self Defense. Martin Luther King, Jr. was born January 15, 1929 and died April 4, 1968. He was an African-American clergyman, activist, and prominent leader in the African-American Civil Rights Movement. There have been several questions about the methods and strategies of each of these protesters. Some questioned whether or not MLK worked for the government in an attempt to keep minorities at bay by preaching peaceful protests and boycotts. Some questioned whether or not Newton was radical and promoted violence instead of self-defense or if he was a terrorist who wanted black supremacy. This study will compare and contrast the methods of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Huey P. Newton.

Our morality is based on what we, as individuals, believe is right or wrong. People from various backgrounds have differing concepts of what they believe to be right and it varies from person to person. Morality is personalized to the individual with independent events shaping this concept. Although this does not necessarily mean one person’s morality is more valid or correct than another, it does create tension. This type of tension arises and is evident between different characters in both Antigone by Sophocles and Martin Luther King Jr.’s A Letter from a Birmingham Jail. Both works depict what happens when two concepts of morality differ and create conflict. In Sophocles’s Antigone and Martin Luther King Jr.’s Letter from a Birmingham Jail King and Antigone both use their own perception of morality to guide what they believe to be right or wrong. For Antigone and Dr.King it is important that laws follow moral guidelines and divine law. This is directly contrasted to Kreon in Antigone who believes what is right is developed by society and those in power rather than one’s own thoughts and ideals. Unline King and Antigone, Kreon’s judgement shows a lack of emotion and revolves around himself.

Do you think education is important? Although Mark Mathabane, Richard Rodriguez, and Malcolm X had a different background. In their childhoods they had many reasons not to like school and education, but throughout their adulthood they began to understand the importance of learning. Looking at their success through knowledge you can tell that they thought that education was the only way out.

The Purpose Of Education This passage is going to be about how these three normal people Malcolm X, Richard Rodriguez, and Mark Mathabane's doubted education in the beginning then became very successful and major people in life just by finding the right path to education. Elijah Malcolm, known as Malcolm X was a very successful leader but was not in the beginning. He had dropped out of school in a really early age because his childhood dream was ruined by a white teacher and explains it in “Learning to Read”. In class one day the teacher had ask him, what do you what to be when you grow up.

August 28, 1963 (Eidenmuller) marked a very important day in history that had an impact not only on America, but the whole world. On this day, Martin Luther King Jr. presented his well known I Have a Dream speech that aimed to eliminate racism, inequality and discrimination. He strongly believed that one day people would put their differences aside and come together. So, what happened to that dream? Along with other equality initiative ideas, they rarely make it past the idea stages or end in the actual eradication result. It is clear to us that even after 51 years, our societies still struggle with accepting full equality. Within those 51 years we have made a mass amount of progress but, a common thought would be that after this long the issue should have been eradicated. Two essays that can be used as an example of proof that racial inequality still exists in our society are, Black Men in Public Spaces by Brent Staples and Who Shot Johnny? by Debra Dickerson. In these essays, both provide solid evidence to support their main goal with the use of different writing styles, tone, and rhetorical devices to display how African Americans are perceived and treated by society.

Silence is often construed as an aesthetic idiosyncrasy and speech is often misconstrued as a harangue. To be more precise, Malcolm X’s outcries can be deemed as both impolitic and radical. There is often a dichotomy between Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X. Martin Luther King Jr. is often noted as taking the most agreeable tactics in order to translate his message. Malcolm X, radically different, approached racism in a more contentious rendering in an already contentious standing. Radical change calls for a radical movement, Malcolm X demanded an American form of equality, in a bigoted society that termed his actions as egregious.

The speaker of the first speech is John F. Kennedy, 35th president of the United States. President Kennedy was instrumental in improving relations with the USSR and improving civil rights in the US. He is seen as one of the greatest presidents America has ever had.

Sometimes street protests can happen for good reasons, for reasons people disagree on, and when that happens, these protests can become violent and the end results are not good because these protesters can get beaten, arrested, and put to jail. These are three activists that protested and went to jail got beaten when they spoke out for what they believed in. Even though they knew the consequences, activists like Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King Jr. and Joshua Wong. Two of these activists fought for black rights, and one activist fought for Hong Kong's independence from China.
