Hello there! I would like to tell you a story.
Not one where a heroic knight saves a beautiful princess from danger. A different kind of story. Actually, you can think that, in the story, liberty is the princess in danger.
And the hero? Well then, let me tell you about a great man named Martin.

His full name is Martin Luther King, Jr., but that's a little long. So for now, let's stick with Martin.
Anyway, he was a Christian minister that was in charge of his own church in a town called Montgomery in the state called Alabama. In this town was where he showed everyone that he had the ability to change the world.

Martin lived in America some 60 years ago, and he became a great leader to many people that wanted to right a wrong.
And that wrong was that not everybody was seen as the same as everyone else, so they were separated from each other in many ways, and the "normals" were really mean to anyone that they saw as a "different".
People called this segregation.

Martin was not happy with segregation, and so he planned to stop it.
A form of segregation he noticed in his town of Montgomery was that people were forced to be separated in buses: people that were called "differents" were forced to sit in the back of buses, but "normals" could sit where they wanted, and that is very unfair.
Martin used his plan, and it worked!

Martin was also seen as a "different", so he asked others like him to stop going on those unfair bus rides!
They all agreed, and so the next day, the buses were empty! His plan worked!
This went on for over a year, but finally, the buses were to no longer separate people! Hooray!

Martin's victory was a big one for the "differents", and he would go on to fight for everyone to be equal! In fact, his plan might not have worked if the year before there wasn't some people saying that "differents" could go to the same school as "normals".
Could you even imagine you not being able to go to a school just because someone thought you were different? That would be so unfair!

You might be thinking: where was I in the middle of this?
I was also seen as a "different", but I was still young like you, so I was watching everything from my TV.
But I will actually join Martin in his greatest plan to stop the segregation!
