Biography of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Martin, Jr., admired his father and all the Atlanta ministers who spoke so eloquently for civil rights. They demonstrated the power of words, which fascinated the young King. This fascination with language helped him score high on the college entrance exam in his junior year of high school. On the strength of his scores, Martin skipped senior year and entered Morehouse College at the age of 15. Morehouse helped Martin see his future more clearly. The young student loved listening to the sermons of Morehouse's president, Dr. Benjamin E. Mays , who was also an ordained minister. Dr. Mays could stir people's minds as well as their emotions. He confirmed Martin's notion that the pulpit could be used to improve African American lives. In February 1948, Martin Luther King, Jr., became a Baptist minister, and in June of that same year, he graduated from Morehouse with a bachelor's degree in sociology. King went on to study religion at Crozer Theological Seminary in Pennsylvania. While there, he was deeply moved by a lecture about the Indian leader

Martin Luther King, Jr. Global Christianity African-American Baptist minister and leader in the civil rights movement, martyr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Raised in Atlanta, Georgia as the son and grandson of Baptist ministers, King had deep roots in African-American Churches . After seminary studies to prepare for ministry, King went on to graduate studies in systematic theology at Boston University; his studies included the work of Walter Rauschenbusch . In 1954 King became pastor of a Baptist church in Montgomery, Alabama. Soon he led the Montgomery Bus Boycott, an effort to end racial segregation on public transportation. King later became a pastor at Ebenezer Baptist church in Atlanta, where he continued leading the civil rights movement for social change through non-violent protest. In 1957 King became president of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) which sought to register African-American voters and to desegregate public accommodations. In many southern cities King led protests, marches, and campaigns to focus national attention on the need for racial and economic justice. In 1963 King led a march on Washington D.C., where he delivered the famous "I Have a Dream" speech, calling America to live up to its promise of equality for all citizens. In 1964 he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. In later years he denounced the Vietnam War and became more radical in his critique of American society. On April 4, 1968, King was assassinated in Memphis, Tennessee; his birthday became a national holiday in 1986.
