This book tell me about Martin Luther King.
He is a instructer of black's libralation and citizenship.
He had a dream-blacks and whites to live together happily.
But In 1950s and 1960s America, all men were not equal like now.
He adovacate "his dream" and "no descrimination","equality regardless of race".
In this respect, I respect him very much. ( )

By reading this book, I was able to gain many knowledges about black and white people. I think using racist words like black and white is so bad. By doung so, people who are using these words misunderstandthat racism is natural and common. However, it's obviously wrong, so King tried to remove a gap between white and black. I was impressed with his peaceful protests. He arrested many times, but he wouldn't give up demonstrating. He is one of the greatest person in world history, I think. If he hadn't been killed and had continued to work for black, black's poor situations would improve better and earlier than now. ( )
