Text:

Martin Luther King.

He was born in Atlanta, U.S.A. He spent his whole life in supporting civil rights in a peaceful way. He never preached violence against those white people who hated the black population in America. He was
really a man of peace. This argument has brought him the Nobel Prize in 1965. He was very courageous. He knew that there were racists who wanted to kill him, but he wasn't afraid. He defended the rights of workers for decent salary and those of children for a good education. The Americans are right to celebrate Martin Luther King day because he lived and died for them. All the world should at least remember this great man in his day.
