How would Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. have responded?
Directions: After reading the articles, "Civil Rights Leader:
Martin Luther King Jr.” and “Pro-Trump mob storms U. S.
Capitol in bid to overturn election" write a response addressing
the events that happened at the capitol on January 6, 2021.
Imagine if Martin Luther King Jr were still alive today. How
would he respond to what happened? What would he say? Your
response should be based on Dr. King's beliefs and values. Dr.
King's response should be directed to an audience of his peers,
so it can be somewhat informal.
Your response should be at least 8-10 sentences. You should
write from Martin Luther King Jr.'s point-of-view (using the
pronoun "I"). Use evidence from the articles to support your
point-of-view. Type your response below.
