KING

** Read the essay from [|**TIME 100 - Martin Luther King**] **. As you do, respond to the following questions **Why does the author feel that whites owe King the greatest debt?** He freed America from their racial hypocrisy. Other countries no longer doubt that America is a nation of freedom.


 * Was King "the right man at the right time"?** He was. He had tremendous courage and was very strong throughout the movement. He was a preacher, so he had the right way of making people look at things. He was a very good choice as leader.

** Would King be upset with the current use of his most often quoted line? Why or why not? ** No, he would not, because affirmative action is obviously judging between the color of a person's skin and in his speech he clearly stated that skin color should not matter. Discerning between skin colors is not the correct thing to do at this point in time.
