Martin Luther King Jr. is a King in every sense of the word. There is no need to elaborate much on this man, he has made his mark and we all know of him. Baptist Minister, Civil Rights Activist, youngest Nobel Peace Prize winner are of his achievements. What makes him stand out the most to us at Forever Kings were his methods of nonviolence adopted from Ghandi. He was a great man indeed but to have endured the hardships that he did and maintain his composure is what made him that much greater and acknowledgeable. Although he was an unviolent man, the state of his power and the oppositions fear of his power made it almost inevitable that his life would end violently. Here is King's speech the night before he was assassinated, it is almost as though he knew what was upon him.
"I'm not fearing any man." King could not have been in a better state than he was at that time. He is prophesying his untimely death yet he maintains love in his heart. We dub him Forever a King for being an American hero and also for what is admired the most by us, his peaceful mind state even in times of adversity.
"I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear." - Martin Luther King, Jr.
