MLK Proposal

Re: Story Outline: Martin Luther King, Jr. Birthday

Subject: Persons or groups inspired by Doctor Martin Luther King, Jr.
Scope: I will research groups that were inspired by Martin Luther King Jr. and why they should be celebrated along side of him. While Martin Luther King was the “voice of the people”, these individuals or groups (such as Rosa Parks and the Freedom Riders) are just as important to the fight towards equal civil rights as he was.
Need: Knowledge of history is important for each person in order for us to grow as human kind. If history is known among the people it is less likely to repeat. These events happened at a reasonably recent time and should not be forgotten.
Methods: I will have a section for each group I find necessary to write about after research.
Sources: I will research news articles on Google News and review informative videos on the Internet to do research on important groups that were inspired or worked along side of Dr. King.
Presentation:
One time column to be distributed on Sealey Sports blog on or before January 20, 2014. However, as said in the methods section, I will divide the column up into sections for each group I cover.
Follow-up: No follow-up story in 2014
