Martin luther king - and the conflict towards black and white people



About 600 years ago, the discrimination against Blacks began, Americans imported them and (ab-) used them to work as slaves. In 1592, a Spanish slave trader bought 38 250 slaves, over 7000 of them died in progress of the transport to the USA. Until 1800, 7 000 000 Blacks have been deported and sold. From 1861 to 1865 the war of secession took place: The northern states of the USA fought against the southern States, where over 10 000 000 of Blacks vegetated, and won the war. In 1867 the famous Ku-Klux-Klan was found, at it's climax it had millions of members. In 1871 the Klan has been forbidden, but still exists today.
The most famous fighters against discrimination against Blacks have been the peaceable Martin Luther King and the ancient criminal Malcolm X.
