How did Throeau's essay "Civil Disobedience" influence people like Martin Luther King Jr. and Ghandi?

Respuesta :

The American tradition of protest, strongly influenced by Thoreau's writing on civil disobedience, includes the notion of nonviolent, direct action. Martin Luther King, "fascinated" and "deeply moved" by Thoreau's essay, built upon the work of both Thoreau and Gandhi (3).
