The Monster Under My Bed

No one believes me. They think I’m lying. But it’s really true, a big hairy monster lives under my bed and I can prove it. Last night, I slowly tip-toed to the light switch and turned the light off. Fortunately the monster didn’t grab me to death yet.

Violence (Malcolm X) vs. Non-Violence (Martin Luther King Jr.)

Did you know that Malcolm X was a minister and an activist? Most of us don’t know that because he protested with violence. Martin Luther King Jr., also known as MLK Jr., was also a minister and an activist, and is famous because of his nonviolent protests. MLK Jr. and Malcolm X did the same thing but had different ways to do it. And that’s what set forth the difference between these two men. Malcolm X was a person who valued and accepted other differences, acknowledged and fought racism, and appreciated non-violence and equality, just like Dr. King.
