    Way to go, Gary! You are the first to leave a comment.

    You are right, Martin Luther King helped change the law. It makes me feel so sad to think that there was a time when not everyone was treated fairly.

    Yes, Martin Luther King did die, and that was very sad. But we honor him every year on a special day. We will never forget all the wonderful things he did for our country, USA!

    What a special man Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was! Tina, I am so glad you mentioned what we learned in class. I'm glad he made those changes so that all boys and girls can learn and play together. Eduardo, you're right he was arrested several times. It really wasn't fair, just like Rosa Parks who was arrested because she would not get up from her seat to give to another person. It wasn't fair because Rosa was being forced out of her seat and she wasn't doing anything to hurt anyone, she just wanted to sit after working hard all day. Dr. King's famous speech is called "I have a dream".
