A quick summary:
Martin Luther King Jr. 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

• Basic facts about the person's life, such as their date of birth, place of birth, and parents' names. (Start with the Internet or your local library.)
These are very easy to find:
Birth: Georgia
parents: Alberta Williams King, and Martin Luther King, Sr.
DOB: Jan. 15, 1929
Facts:  His name was originally Michael, not Martin.
At a young age of only twelve, he tried to commit the suicide.
When he was shot/killed he was on the balcony to smoke a cigarette.
He skipped two grades in Highschool.
And continue on with that :)

• Adjectives you would use to describe this person and what made him/her interesting or special. Give two examples from his/her life that demonstrate those two qualities.
Brave: He ran a very special moving for equality.
Smart: He knew exactly what to do, that was proper and was needed.

• Events that happened in the person's life to guide him/her in the direction he/she chose. What effect did this person have on the world as a whole and on other people?
He say people being racist, and unfair. People were rude to him, and he wanting freedom, fairness between the races. He wanted equality. In which, later in his life, he soon got. After he ran the movement, people began to realize what he was fighting for. In which, it was given. Although many people still dont follow by these rules that were placed because of how helpful he was, many do. People are now free of slavery, or being treated unfairly. (But in many countries, these rules dont 'apply to them' so to speak)

• How did this person handle the challenges of life? What qualities did he/she exhibit (e.g. determination, tolerance, leadership...) that helped make this person successful?
He was a born leader. He didnt care what mean comments were to be said about him. He went on with what he was fighting for, which made him courageous, and brave. Even though he knew that he may be harmed, he fought for freedom! He fought for the rights of all americans, african americans, everyone!

• Write a summary about this person, telling why the world is better because he/she lived in it. 
Without MLK Jr. the world probably world still be full of racism, and hatred. He made a very big impact of todays society.

Just kind of fix all of this together, and theres your essay!

-Hope this helped :) 
Good luck ^_^

Jack Roosevelt Washington, often called "Jackie" was born on January 31, 1919 in Cairo, GA. He was born into a poor family of share croppers, struggling to survive the harsh life of an African American family living in the deep south. In 1920, his father Jerry Robinson left his mother Mallie and his five siblings. This caused the family to attempt a new life in Pasadena, CA. 
Life in California was rough for young Jackie. Tired of the segregation and discrimination he often faced, he joined a gang at a young age. Despite his challenges, Robinson graduated high school in 1935 and began a life of sports in the path of his older brother, whom earned an Olympic Silver medal in 1936. In college, Jackie fueled his passion for sports everyday and lettered in four varsity sports. (Football, basketball, track, and the sport he would soon become legend in: baseball.)
In 1942, Jackie Robinson was drafted into the US army, where he became a commissioned US Officer. However, in the military, Robinson would encounter the same discrimination that lead him to aggression in his younger years. in 1944, Robinson was court-martialed by an all white jury, where he was convicted of two counts of insubordination. In the end, Jackie was allowed to coach Army Athletics as a coach, further fueling his passion for sports. In late 1944, he was honorably discharged from the military. 
in 1945, Robinson was afforded the opportunity to play for the Kansas City Monarchs, a team from the Professional Baseball Negro Leagues. Yearning for more, Jackie tried out for the Boston Red Sox. However, this tryout subjected him the racial prejudice and was not allowed to join the team. However, Branch Rickey, General Manager of the Brooklyn Dodgers found a special interest in Jackie and interviewed him to join as a member of his team. Mr. Rickey placed Jackie on the Montreal Royals, the International League owned by the Dodgers. 
After two years in the Minor Leagues, Jackie Robinson became the first player to break the color barrier of Major League Baseball as a proud member of the Brooklyn Dodgers. In 1949, he was voted the Most Valuable Player due to his intense commitment to excellent play. His resilience served him well as he changed the world forever by showing that all people, regardless of color can be sucessful.
