MLK Jr.

The last time that I really went into depth about the civil rights movement was probably in 8th grade. I had a really great English teacher that year who was very passionate about that whole era, so we spent a few weeks studying it. Unfortunately, since then, none of my teachers really covered that topic, it was always sort of just skimmed over. Because of this, I have forgotten a lot of the things that happened during that time, which is sad because this is such a big part of our history and had a huge impact on our country.
