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 feels that whites owe King the largest debt because King helped the country look more accepting for diffrent races and ballenced America. He also helped show other countries that America could become racially equal through the Civil Rights Act and that people should be treated fairly.**
 * Was King "the right man at the right time"? Yes he was because the timing of his speech and his personality was perfect to show America that African Americans deserve Civil Rights.**


 * Would King be upset with the current use of his most often quoted line? Why or why not? I believe that he wouldn't be upset because it still shows that children and people of diffrent races and cultures still are equal and that we have made a great improvement from the time of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. It would also tell people to remember the past mistakes and that those mistakes can never be made again.**
