MLKism

MLKism is the ideology of African-American civil rights activist Martin Luther King Jr. He is considered by many to be the leading figure of the Black Civil Rights movement of the 1950s and 60s in the United States, being most known for his guiding principles of civil disobedience and nonviolence in resisting injustice. He was deeply religious, having been a Baptist minister for a majority of his adult life, and citing the Bible frequently in his speeches on racial equality. He was also, to quote himself, "more socialistic in [his] economic theory than capitalistic. And yet [he is] not so opposed to capitalism that [he has] failed to see its relative merits."

Personality
MLKism has a personality similar to Martin Luther King, Jr. He is very formal in speech, especially when addressing a large audience, and is frequently seen advocating for racial equality between white and black people in America, and at times, criticizing capitalism. Being a Baptist minister, he also frequently cites the Bible and relates his causes to God. Despite being rather vocally passionate about these causes, he is also radically pacifist, preaching nonviolence and stopping other pro-equality balls from using violence against sociopolitical adversaries.
