We are all aware that Dr. King is a very influential character in the struggle for equality in terms of race. Heck, his birthday is even a holiday. I'm sure that we can all say that the work and dedication that Dr. King has put into his resolve of achieving his cause through nonviolence was extraordinary. He truly has become an ideal model for revolutionaries and other such groups.
Do Dr. King's cause go to waist? It can be safely assumed that it didn't go to waste considering the racial equaity in the United States. His cause may not have gotten through to all though. Despite what happens, there will still be racist and prejudice individuals that judge according to skin. There are still those who think they are superior due to race. Actions to refute such a righteous justice can only be seen as "unjust."
I feel that Dr. King's words have for the most part caused beneficial change. I still think racism is still very much alive though. MLK stood for what many in past saw as an impossible achievement due to our track record of using violence as a means to an end. King's message will never be forgotten. That I can guarantee.
