The American Ideals that are most represented by celebrating the life and dreams of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (also MLK Jr.) are equality for all and the use of nonviolent means of protest to move progressive ideas from dream to reality.

Dr. King used his life to inspire others to help move the Civil Rights movement in a positive direction and affect real change. The early part of the 20th century was still a very difficult time for African-Americans in the United States. There were still horrible events that occurred in the U.S., especially in the South, like lynchings - hanging people, specifically African-Americans as a form of local justice without due process or a court of law.

Dr. King was assassinated (or killed) in 1968. Dr. King represented freedom and equality to millions of Americans. The Civil Rights Movement in America continued forward and much social progress with regards to freedom and equality due to Dr. King's ideals and leadership during the 1950s and 1960s.

These ideals continue to be celebrated every MLK Jr. day, a day that his heirs have promoted as a part of social campaign to give back to local communities, not a day off of work or school, but a day to give back.

Celebrating the life and dream of Martin Luther King Jr. reaffirms American ideals because Martin Luther King Jr. stood for equality, freedom, and justice for everybody while he was alive.

Martin Luther King Jr. was famous for giving the speech titled "I have a dream." The speech centered on equality, freedom, and justice for every American regardless of race, color, or any form of difference such as gender and age.

The equality, freedom, and justice emboldened by the life of Martin Luther King Jr. are also represented in the United States Preamble for the Constitution.

the expansion of the rule of empires over other territories took place as a result of several reasons including economic, ethnocentric, political, and religious, and exploratory purposes.

in terms of economic purposes: imperial governments aimed to maximize profits and with that purpose they neeeded cheap labor, access to or control of markets to sell or buy products. they also desired to find natural resources (precious metals and land). in the awake of industrial revolution, dependent colonies provided the necessary raw materials that european factories and market needed to manufacture products.

ethnocentric: many territories were conquered by imperial territories in an attempt to spread their cultures, values and belief as they considered them to be superior. in the late 19th century, for example, european powers held the racist belief that inferior races should be conquered in order to “civilize” them.

political: another reason that drove conquer and expansion was patriotism and growing imperial power. it refers to national prestige, pride, and security. empires sought strategic territory to ensure access for their navies and armies around the world.

religious: the aim of converting new member of other religions was another factor that prompted expansion. christian missionaries from europe established churches in conquered territories during the nineteenth century. thus, they spread western cultural values. furthermore, the imperial nation’s language was spread as well, through educational and religious interactions.

exploratory: imperial nations or their citizens aimed to explore territory that was unknown to them, for different purposes including medical or scientific research, however, at the very beginning, they did it to embark on adventure. furthermore, imperial explorers sought to discover, map, and claim territory before their imperial competition did, for national and personal glory as well as to realize the imperialist goal of expansion.
