MLK Jr. was a inspirational man, who fought hard and strategically for what he believed in and cared for. MLK stood out and took a stand against his government, the social standard, and what others considered normal. Transcendentalist believe in individualism and that a person's thought process is what best for them. To be self reliant and always see the good in others. They also believed, that nature was very important. I want to talk about how their ideas compare.
MLK Jr. believed in many things, such that people should have the right to be equal, free, and the same rights as anyone else. MLK Jr. goal was to desegregate America and change the laws to were it was illegal to do so.
MLK Jr. would agree with transcendentalist on some things, such as believing that an individual can think better for themself than a system can. I think we see that MLK expresses Transcendentalist ideas when he starts rebelling against the legal system because he believes that they are wrong and as a individual he is correct.
MLK also believed that everybody deserves a chance, and no one should be judged. This goes along with transcendentalism because they believe that you should always look for the good in others. Both of them would agree that everyone has the chance to be good, and that there is good within them. MLK stood up and fought for black people because he believed that his people were just as good as any other type of people, filled with goodness.
