Dr Martin Luther King Jr was at the forefront of the civil rights movement 60 years ago. As activists today, in the fight against injustice (whether that be towards humans, animals, or the planet) we can learn a lot from the teachings of Martin Luther King Jr, and the philosophy he left behind.

The country experienced a fully fledged civil war between 1980-1992 with 75,000 people killed and over 7,000 who went missing, creating a highly divided and broken society.
