Although King was fighting for equality among Americans no matter their color or creed, not all Black people supported him. Some believed he was endangering the lives of children.

Inspired by Gandhi's Nonviolent Protests MLK was heavily influenced by Gandhi's philosophy of nonviolence. Aside from staging boycotts, he also led protesters to sit in on the streets with the goal of being arrested and congesting jails.

MLK was jailed 29 times. Citations were not limited to his leadership of nonviolent protests but also involved petty crimes such as speeding. On Aug. 28, 1963, following a short stint in jail, King organized a demonstration near the iconic Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C.

Today’s MLK fact: Ten years before King was assassinated, Izola Curry struck him with an envelope opener in the chest and nearly hit his aorta at a book signing event in Harlem. Surgeons told King that a simple sneeze could have punctured his aorta and killed him.
