The leader I most admire is the historic, Martin Luther King. He has showed great determination to what he passionately believed, he was one of the most dominant leaders during the American civil rights movement, and he achieved his “Dream”, with non-violent resistance towards racial domination.
Martin Luther King, was inspired by the works of the man who brought independence to India, his name was Mohandas K. Gandhi, in 1955 Martin Luther King and other black leaders had organized a protest against racial segregation, in public transport after Rosa Parks was arrested as she refused to give up her seat to a Caucasian passenger. During the 381-day protest, Martin was arrested and jailed, his home was attacked as well as receiving many threats against his life. However in 1956, the action ended with a mandate from the Supreme Court outlawing all segregated public transport in the city. The protest was a clear victory for the non-violent demonstration, Martin then became a highly respected “leader”. He seems to have shown ambitions goals to other people of all ages to declare that all people can succeed in many different ways, including social, economic and environmental goals. He aspires again from people he looked upon, this gives the chance for him to shine for our generation therefore we will hopefully aspire to become a man of his wishes.
