Can some one translate thisto Afrikaans? The online translaters don't work. Your help is really and truly appreciated. "My role model was born on January the 15th, 1929 in Atlanta Georgia. He grew up with in a family of three children, one sister and one brother. In 1948 he graduated from high school at the age of 15 with a B.A degree from Morehouse College. After 1951 he enrolled in graduate studies at Boston University, completing his residence for a doctorate in 1953 and received a degree in 1955. While in Boston he met and married Coretta Scott. He then went on to have two daughters and two sons. In the eleven-year period between 1957 and 1968, King traveled over six million miles and spoke over twenty-five hundred times, appearing wherever there was injustice, protest, and action. In these years, he led a massive protest in Birmingham, Alabama, that caught the attention of the entire world, providing what he called a coalition of conscience. He directed the peaceful march on Washington, D.C., of 250,000 people to whom he delivered his address, "l Have a Dream", on the steps of the Lincoln memorial. At the age of thirty-five, he was the youngest man to have received the Nobel Peace Prize. When notified of his selection, he announced that he would turn over the prize money of $54,123 to the furtherance of the civil rights movement. On the evening of April 4, 1968, while standing on the balcony of his motel room in Memphis, Tennessee, where he was to lead a protest march in sympathy with striking garbage workers of that city, he was assassinated. “he†is none other than Martin Luther King Jr. Not only is he my role model because of all of the things that he did, he also inspired many people stand up for their rights, which then led Barack Obama to do what he did today. I’ll close off with a saying that I read. “Rosa Parks sat so that Martin Luther King could walk, Martin Luther King walked so that Obama could fly. Obama flew so that we all can fly.†Thank you "

I am Afrikaans speaking so you can trust that this is pretty much a good translation. Note however that I'm not a journalist so I tried my best. If there is certain words or sentences that someone else could restructure it would maybe help but I believe everything would be pretty much OK. So here goes... My rolmodel was gebore op die 15de Januarie 1929 in Atlanta Georgia. Hy was deel van 'n familie van drie kinders, een sister en een broer. In 1948 het hy op die ouderdom van 15 by die hoërskool, Morehouse College, gegradueer met 'n B.A. graad. Na 1951 het hy sy graad gaan doen by Boston Universiteit, sy dokotoraat gekry in 1953 en in 1955 sy graad behaal. Terwyl in Boston was, het hy Coretta Scott ontmoet en met haar getrou. Hy het toe voort gegaan en twee dogters en twee seuns gekry. In die elfjaar tydperk tussen 1957 en 1968, het King oor die ses miljoen myl gereis en oor die vyf-en-twintig keer gepraat waarokal daar iets onwettigs, proteste en aksies was. In die jare het hy 'n massiewe protes in Birmingham, Alabama gelei wat die aandag van almal in die wêreld gekry het, bygesê, dis wat hy die koalisie van die onderbewussein genoem het. Hy het die vredes marts op Washington DC gerigiseer waar hy sy bekende "I have a dream" vir 250000 mense op die trappe van die 'Lincoln Memorial' weergegee get. Op die ouderdom van vyf-en-dertig was hy die jongste persoon wat die 'Nobel Peace Prize' ontvang het. Toe hy in kennis gestel was oor sy verkiessing het hy dit bekendgemaak dat hy die prysgeld, van $54,123, sal oorhanding aan die 'civil rights movement'. Op die aand van 4 April 1968, terwyl hy gestaan het op sy balkon van sy hotel kamer in Memphis, Tennessee, toe hy besig was om 'n protes te lei teen stakende vullus werkers, was hy koelbloedig doodgeskiet. 'Hy' is geen ander as Martin Luther King Junior. Nie alleenlik is hy my rolmodel oor alles wat hy gedoen het nie, hy het ons ook geinspireer om optestaan vir ons mense regte, wat daartoe gelei het dat Barack Obama kan doen wat hy vandag doen. Ek sal afsluit met iets wat ek gelees het. "Rosa Parks het gesit sodat Martin Luther King kon loop, Martin Luther King het geloop sodat Obama kon vlieg. Obama het gevlieg sodat ons almal kan vlieg." Dankie.
