For social studies, I made a timeline of MLK´s. Jr important events. He was a well known public speaker and black people’s rights. he changed a lot of the future for us. for all, we know the law could have been the same. He motivated people to keep trying and don´t get physical with other people and one of his quotes to promote that was ¨ Hate cannot drive out hate only love can¨.
