Divine Acquaintance

If I could meet anyone in the past or present who would it be? That is a great question. My ideal person to meet would be Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. This is because I would like to get into his mind a little bit and see was going on in there during the times where blacks were widely hated among everyone and get insight to how painful his struggles for equality actually were. I would take him to every type of public place that was previously segregated like parks, restroom facilities, drinking fountains, restaurants bussing systems and even schools. I would tell him that because of him and so many other struggling Americans we now have non-segregated places and that we do not have to have poor colleges. I would also tell him that his struggles along with so many others actually helped America become more equal and the way it is today and that his death was not in vain. This would help me better appreciate what I have today because it would help me understand better what people had to go thought to get America the way it is.
