M.L.K. for a day (Quote)

Quote: The point of non violence is not to humiliate the opponent, but to gain his friendship and understanding. Dr. King did not want his followers to shame racists, only convince them to treat people better.

I had chose this quote because it really stands out to me. And that this quote is a good thing to live by. People should not humiliate you from the color of your skin, or how you look or anything about you. If they don't accept you they don't accept you. You can not change that at all you have no power over that. But, one day they'll turn around and accept you for who you are. Another reason why this quote stood out to me was because he's not afraid if people don't like him. He was taught to love the people who hated him or didn't like him. This quote is one of the things at makes me wonder more about people who changed our lives forever. I'll always and forever remember this quote.
