Makena G. Group 5 The African Americans fighting for their civil rights were very brave. They had a lot of perserverance and courage. They proved that if you stand up for what you beleive in, you can do whatever you set your mind to. We will forever look up to them for their bravery. They were very inspirational.

Erin H. Group 4

The leader Martin Luther King Jr was a very brave person. King helped in the civil rights movement for African Americans. During this time period, there was a lot of violence, however King never used violence, he was a peacemaker. King led many marches protesting the discrimination of African Americans. He also gave many insparational speeches too. Sadly, Martin Luther King Jr was killed during his most famous speech, the "I Have a Dream" Speech. King will always and forever remain one of the most famous people from this terrible time period. After King died, African Americans were no longer discriminated.
