How Did Martin Luther King Influence The Civil Rights Movement

Martin Luther King Jr. is a symbolic figure who inspires the black reform movement/ civil rights to obtain many followers through speeches, nonviolent demonstrations and a new perspective on African American lives morally and politically. This of course was integrated with the civil rights movement where racial injustice was raised during the 1960’s .The intentions for all these aspects were mainly to project the civilized person in which every human possesses according to MLK’s theological perspective. He is a Baptist minister with a PH.D in systematic theology, which preaches and believes the bible, which in most cases ends up discussing and displaying the theological rule to obtain other religious organizations to follow the movement through

MLK states “…principles of nonviolence is the willingness to be the recipient of violence…”.This statement comes to shove, though behaving in a formal manner people will still try to get rid of the problem that consumes their temperament. Therefore, nonviolent protest ironically become violent due to the oppressors attitude towards the demonstration even if it was lawful to orientate .Though having not violated any political barriers he tied in the peace keeping to compensate for his religious beliefs king explained, “I was thrust into the leadership of the bus protest in Montgomery.” This is king giving an exact demonstration of nonviolence in which he participated, let alone helped assist by becoming a leader.

Social aspect since the society itself is trying to balance out and not have either race superior to the other, in which is how people change constructs and etc. The political aspect is jumping into action with the sectional remedies in which mainly pertained to voting rights and the desegregation of schools.
