MLK

Learning about Dr. Martin Luther King yields thoughtful conversations.

"It was unfair to have blacks
have to give up seats on a bus or ride in the back."  ~Joseph

"In his day there were two kinds of schools
The ones for white kids were clean, had better books, and were nicer. 
African American kids were not as lucky.  That was really wrong."  ~Matthew
"He was a minister but traveled around, making speeches.
 Lots of people both black and white agreed with Martin Luther King.  ~Abigail
"His children lost a dad when he was shot."  ~Cody
"Why would someone kill him?  That's not right.  ~Xavier
"Some white people agreed with him and some did not.  It's the same today."  ~Diego
