For the research paper, I chose the topic of the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. Martin Luther King Jr. was the leader in the Civil Rights Movement and would later on impact the view on race. King was a very important leader to those who felt that racial segregation was not right and everyone was equal no matter their race. I chose the assassination of King because his leadership not only made an impact on just black and whites but every race. Martin Luther King is a leader that everyone is very familiar with, but a lot of people are not very familiar with his assassination. Not only am I aiming towards learning more about Martin Luther King Jr, but also his assassination and how it affected the people who supported him and his dream.
