My hero is Martin Luther King. He was born in Atlanta, Georgia on January 15, 1929. What my hero accomplished was that white and black people were treated fair. My hero accomplished this because he wanted black people to be treated with respect. Martin Luther King accomplished his goal by talking to people about black people, how they were treated disrespectful. He was respectful to black people. Thats why he tried to talk to people about black people and how they were judged.
I remember Martin Luther King's "I have a Dream Speech." He gave it in front of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington DC. One of the most famous lines in the speech is that he wanted his young children to be judged by the content of their character, not by the color of their skin. He was a pacifist which means that he believed on non-violence.

Mr. King believed that nobody should be judged by the color of his skin and that was what our founding fathers intended when they said that "all men are created equal." He was a great American!
