"The Trumpet of Conscience" - Summary

     Martin Luther King Jr., moved by the discrimination and poverty of African Americans, had an important speech called "The Trumpet of Conscience." He rejected the war that United States had against Vietnam at the same time that he was fighting for the civil rights in America. People criticized that he was interested in other matters like the war, which they said had nothing to do with his rights fight. The motivation of his concerns for the war was that he thought that we cannot talk about discrimination issues if we don't have the moral to avoid a war.
