Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. is seen as America's leading advocate of peaceful demonstartions for civil rights from 1955 until his assassination in 1968. It's ironic that a man so dedicated to peaceful means was taken out in such as violent manner.
Dr. King used both his Christian faith and the teachings of Mahatma Gandhi, in his approach to civil rights. His non-violent movement included Americans of all races. Dr. King used the power of words to achieve his goals, whereas other civil rights leaders used "any means" to achieve the end including violence.
