The life and death of Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. was a motivator for positive change with African Americans.  His principle of non-violent protest was a stimulus for promoting the need for proper civil rights of African Americans.  America was ill-equipped to stop the changes that Rev. King was creating throughout the country.  A bullet stopped his life on April 4, but not his dream.    The life of Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. illustrates without question that one person can make a difference in the world.
