Thats what made MLK great, because at a point in time when the natural reaction wouldve been to go out and fight and be consumed by greater war, he insisted upon peace. It takes more courage to stand still for your own beliefs in the face of adversity, than to just react out of anger.
If the method of those under Malcom X came to succeed, we would live in a divided nation where blacks and whites keep.to themselves. What MLK did, accoplished a bigger step towards unity
