The story of Dr. Martin Luther King describes the importance of fighting the injustices of the world with pacifism and non-violence. We learn that Dr. Martin Luther King was a preacher that was able to fight for equal rights for minorities knowing that there was racism that existed. We learn that in the 1960's there was inequality that existed because of racism, and Dr. Martin Luther King fought against racism. We learn that while other movements attempted to incorporate hate and violence, Dr. Martin Luther King preached the importance of civil disobedience against measures that were racist and designed to prevent individuals from improving themselves.

We learn about the examples that existed in the past of Jim Crowe laws that attempted to prevent individuals from improving themselves. There were also unjust discriminatory laws that called for separate bathrooms, separate water fountains, and even different seatings in buses for people that were African-American or minorities. This describes the manner that sometimes there is racism that exists and there is the need to combat the temporary lies and negative emotions that attempt to lead to hate and envy without reason. We learn that while there were movements calling the need to fight hate with hate seen in false philosophies of hate and lust, Dr. Martin Luther King called on the need to preach filial love, genuine empathy, and civil disobedience describing that racism does not allow for true equality.

We learn that Dr. Martin Luther King was able to preach and describe the importance of not fighting hate with hate and instead instructed the need to fight against hate by preaching unity, equality, and wisdom. We learn that Dr. Martin Luther King was able to help African-Americans and minorities fight against the injustices of racism that had existed in the past. We learn that because of the preaching and determination of Dr. Martin Luther King, the unjust and unequal Jim Crowe laws were removed and instead the importance of equality, empathy, and filial love was seen. We are able to see the importance of how filial love and genuine empathy can conquer hate when fighting against hate.
