MLK was deeply influenced by Christian teachings and the philosophy of Mahatma Gandhi. He believed that violence only led to more violence, while peaceful protest exposed injustice without destroying human dignity. It wasn’t weak — it was incredibly brave. Marchers faced police brutality, dogs, and jail time, and MLK told them to stay strong and resist hatred. He wanted the world to see who was harming who. That strategy worked because it changed hearts as well as laws. It’s a philosophy that still influences movements today.
