Who Was MLK (Martin Luther King Jr)?

MLK was a very smart man who had high intentions to become successful in life, he went to college for medical and law for many years before joining his dads work. his dads work was a baptist church in Atlanta, Georgia, after his service for the community and God he soon realized he would have to change his was for a great good to help the people he loved. that's when MLK Began to make a change for his life and the others who had the same problem and that was racism, he wanted to change the world and to stop the hatred between the people who despised people of his "kind". So he soon started a very large movement to bring peace and love to the two who hated each other and decided to stop at nothing to end this war of the races.

What was MLK's dream?

Martin Luther King JR's Dream was for everyone one "colored" or "none-colored" to get along and to stop seeing each other as different just because of the color of their skin. This man was a great man and he sacrificed his whole life and all of his time to make a stand against one this country's biggest problems dating all the way back to the beginning and that's racism. racism was very common for a very long time, the sad thing was many people saw it as something everyone did and they too would do it. that's how it was for many years and after a long time of mistreatment towards the people of color someone took a stand like many pothers and that was the man we know today as Martin Luther King Jr aka MLK.

What is racism?

Racism is the act of labeling someone or connecting them to a stereotype just because of their skin color. This started many, many years ago and even continues through this generation and many more to come. Racism is seen all over the world from many different races to another and continues to change the perspective of many whom are involved with this judging of another. this is a very serious topic and always seems to find its way in almost everything in this world today, its

Racism is an ism to which everyone in the world today is exposed; for or against, we must take sides. And the history of the future will differ according to the decisions which we make

How is this connected to sports?

Racism is in everyday life; like i said before, it always seems to find its way into anything as long as people are involved. Sports is another category were racism sadly falls, its not as present today as it was in the early years of sports but is very surely still alive today. there are many different acts of racism shown in sports all the time its just the matter of addressing them and taking action upon those actions. many players and people who are associated with the sports have seen these acts and have told the media and press about the racism they've seen and experienced and sometimes it was even shown live all around the world for people to see. Its a sad experience for all these people who love the sport more then life to have top have there experience ruined from other option on one another.

Here is a prime example of one of the racists actions that even a team owner made about some of his own players on his team and others he played against.

Why do people bring racism into sports?

well sports are a big topic for the world nowadays, everybody's either playing or watching them and we all know how competitive they can get. race has been a very sensitive topic to address for many years now so people will use that to their advantage, its more of a way to get into that player or multiple players head and people really abuse it. many people do it for that reasoning but there are people out there who just do it out of hatred for the color of the person skin and that what makes it all worse.

As Shown in this Photo Majority Of Race in american Sports is in Fact Caucasian.

Why Cant Racism just Stop?

This is a very great question that i bet many of people are also wishing would come trues well but from many years of these harsh actions between one an another it has built such a strong Wall between ending and continuing. Racism will always be alive the more we address it, the more we feed into it and address it the worse it will become and that's what everyone should know.as a whole, including everyone around the world just need to drop the ignorance and see the true beauty of every other race instead of the negativity.

How Are we Going to Get Rid Of Racism? Stop Talking About it.
