Not many people today are able or willing to risk their life to give their opinion and help others. Martin made sure everyone knew that segregation was wrong and eventually it cost him his life because someone disagreed. Martin was able to overcome the fear that someone or everyone would not like what he had to say. He knew what could happen yet still pushed on, something that most people couldn't or wouldn't do.

Martin Luther even told people that "Our lives begin to end when we remain silent about things that matter."- Martin.
