MLK

If I was doing a research project on Martin Luther King Jr. I would probably scan the web to try to find reliable websites to use. The website http://martinlutherking.org/ looks good at the first glance, but a deeper look makes you think again.  ”A True Historical Examination” is the motto of this website, but if you scroll down to the bottom the page is posted by Stormfront, a white supremacist group.  If you do not look at this before you use the information from this site you will be stating false information.  The other website http://www.thekingcenter.org/ is a valid website to use information from.  The King Library and Archives in Atlanta is one clue that this website is legitimate, because of its physical location.  The point of this assignment is to understand the difference of websites when using the web for research.  One confusing point for some is that both sites end in .org.  You have to look past this and take a closer look at who is broadcasting these websites.
