Since the mid-1950s, King, a Baptist minister and the founder of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), had led the civil rights movement, fighting segregation and achieving significant civil rights advances for African Americans through a mixture of impassioned speeches and nonviolent protests.
