What if MLK Jr. had an Instagram?

Martin Luther King Jr. was a Baptist minister, activist, humanitarian, and member of the African-American Civil Rights Movement. He was a strong believer of using nonviolent civil disobedience. MLK Jr. lived from 1929 to 1968- way before the time of smartphones and apps. But, what if those technologies had been present in his day?

We ask students: What would he have found important enough to upload? What moments would he have wanted to share with the world? Who would he have followed?

Explore more about Martin Luther King Jr. on our Gale and Credo databases and check out the Media Center bulletin board for more Instagram posts.
