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 them of the burden of America's century old hypocrisy about race. It is only because of king that america is a "free world"


 * Was King "the right man at the right time"?** yes, before his movement people would be put in jail for sitting on a bus, be killed for talking suggestively to a white girl. After he came around that all changed blacks could sit with whites, go to school together and could not be persecuted for their race.

** Would King be upset with the current use of his most often quoted line? Why or why not? ** He says It is being put to use on things he would not promote. It ruins his legacy and gives the wrong message. They are not words of a hallmark card they are words of a prophet.
