Two historical leaders
Many years ago blacks used to be slaves, and they were discriminated. Nevertheless, there has always been someone that believes in equality and has fought for it. Martin Luther King and Abraham Lincoln are two political figures who have marked the present by freeing the slaves and by standing up for their beliefs on equality, and even though Abraham Lincoln and Martin Luther King were very different, both succeeded in one thing: bringing racial equality to America. Abraham Lincoln fought for the freedom of Africa Americans in the Civil War. Martin Luther King did many things for African Americans as well. He was the leader of the bus boycott in Montgomery and he also gave the powerful speech “I have a Dream”. These two leaders helped so today could be racial equality.
