Martin Luther King

This is a one-act play based on the words of Martin Luther King. He spent all his adult life working towards racial equality, mostly in the South of the United States, but he was also active in some Northern states, like Illinois. He even was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts. Segregation and discrimination have not disappeared. They still exist, but not as severely and as openly as they were before Dr. King inspired Americans to open their minds and their hearts. His legacy is non-violence. Peaceful protests against racism. Demanding equality before the law. Equal opportunity for children coming up. The right to vote without fear for everyone. Most of all we remember the beauty of his expressions and the power in his presentations. He was the top orator of the 20th century.
