27. One major difference. MLK and his movement of non violent protest. It's always people like MLK
that make positive change come about in our world. They are transcendent people with vision and wisdom. The same can be said of Mahatma Gandhi.

In my mind anyway, the civil rights movement would not have been possible if it were not for MLK.

Look as South Africa and Nelson Mandella. The gay movement needs a gay MLK right now.
