📖 Meet Martin Luther King, Jr

In the early years of Martin Luther King Jr, even when he was five, he was discriminated against like all the other blacks in America. The white children's mother did not let him play with them anymore. "I thought we were friends," he said to his mother. She explained about the Jim Crow laws, and how they were considered bad people. They both thought it was unfair, but his mother said it was the way it is. He never forgot about the white boys whose mother didn't allow him to play with them. Growing up, Martin loved books, especially about the brave blacks like Fredrick Douglass, Harriet Tubman, and Booker T. Washington. He was so smart that he skipped the ninth and twelfth grades. His college exams were so good, he didn't have to finish highschool. He went to college when he was fifteen. Later on, he married Coretta Scott after University in Boston. He began thinking about the unfair treatment, and was determined to solve it. After Rosa Parks's arrestment, he told all the blacks in the city to boycott buses, and was successful. But they were still segregated. Then, he made a speech about discrimination against blacks, and why they needed to stop that. He started marches, like in Alabama for example. More than 20,000,000 people marched with him. Today, Martin is recognized around the world as a brave man who helped the blacks earn their right in their community. I suggest this book because it teaches about the importance of equality, why Martin is a brave, important man, and peace.

在Martin Luther King小时候,五岁的时候,他和美国所有其他黑种人一样,感受到了歧视的不公。白种人孩子的母亲不再让他和白种人小孩一起玩了。 "我以为我们是朋友。"他对母亲诉苦到。母亲向他解释了吉姆克劳法,以及黑种人是被视为坏人的。虽然他们都认为这不公平,但事实就是这样的。那个不被允许和他一起玩耍的白种人男孩让Martin Luther King念念不忘。在成长过程中,马丁很喜欢读书,尤其是关于像Fredrick Douglass, Harriet Tubman和Booker T. Washington这样勇敢的黑种人的书。Martin Luther King十分聪明,跳过了九年级和十二年级,十五岁就上了大学。从波士顿大学毕业后与Coretta Scott结婚。他开始认真思考所受的不公平待遇,并下定决心要解决这个社会问题。在Rosa Parks被捕后,他号召全城黑种人抵制公共汽车,并取得了成功。 但仍然没有废除隔离制度。随后他发表了关于对黑种人的歧视以及为什么他们需要制止这种歧视的演讲。他开始四处游行,超过20,000,000人与他一起游行。今天,Martin Luther King在世界范围内被公认为是一位勇敢的人,他帮助黑种人在社会中赢得了平等的权利。我推荐这本书是因为它教导了平等的重要性,为什么马丁是一个勇敢、重要的人物,以及和平的重要性。
