Answer 2

Both president John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr. worked to bring about social equality and poverty.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the eyes of the lower underprivileged classes and the African American community, both men were seen as committed with changing a number of unfair conditions that had persisted in the U.S. society up to the 1960s. They were both highly respected, admired and even loved political figures and many people had placed their hopes in them to make of the U.S. a fair and better country. Their assassinations deeply affected the lower classes and African American as they realized that it would be too hard find men like them that they could follow to advance their rights.
