Martin Luther King Jr.

   Martin Luther King Jr. was a great man. He was hardworking and very intelligent. He stood up for what he believed in and fought through the evil that was thrust upon him. You can tell that he was a friendly person and he was also a leader.

  Dr. Martin Luther King Juniors dream was to make peace. He wanted men and women of all races to work together and friends. He wanted people to be equal and have the same rights. You can tell because he quoted President Lincoln. His dream would help benefit tons of people. His dream was for people to work together as brothers and sisters of America. He also wanted to ensure freedom. He had a fantastic dream.
  
 The obstacles that are getting in the way of America achieving this dream is all the war and racism. People are judging others by their race when they should really be judging by their character. America has a "schizophrenic personality" which causes the American people to become worse each day.

   He talks about world perspective and how we must survive. We must take what he says and put it to work. He knew what he was talking about and he wanted this dream so much. We can achieve this dream by working together. People need to work more spiritually. To become equal everybody needs to have equal rights, this includes women and people of ALL races.

   We can all learn self importance from him and we could also learn how to make the United States a better place. The United States is a bad place now and Dr. King wouldn't me proud of the United States as it is right now. In the future we would probably like to see more people working together and being more nice. We would like to see more children being safe and people not being murdered and people not being kidnapped. The world would be a much safer place.

  1. Alexis- Great job! Your ideas are very clear and you I love how you used specific examples to support you opinions and claims. You not only referenced the text, but you explained why each element was important. You used quotations appropriately... Very nice.
