MLK for a Day

In school, we have been learning about Martin Luther King. I am going to reflect on what we learned. Martin Luther King was a man who Helped whites and blacks not be racist against each other. He helped people realize not to hate each other not just because your skin is a different color. He was a man that didn't fight with violence, but with peace. He was known as a peace warrior.

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate can not drive out hate; only love can do that.- Martin luther king.

   This poem moves me because, It tells you not to fight in hate, but with love.

Heres a video that moves me also.
