Abstract:
This resource links to various collections from the Smithsonian through which to learn about about Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Under Dr. King’s leadership, nonviolent protest became the defining feature of the modern civil rights movement in America. King first demonstrated the efficacy of passive resistance in 1955–56 while helping to lead the prolonged bus boycott in Montgomery, Alabama, that succeeded in dismantling bus segregation laws. King’s words were as powerful as his deeds, and his moving and eloquent addresses, which gave hope to millions, continue to inspire people throughout the world. This resource provides links that allow users to explore related items in the Smithsonian collections.
