This Month In History

This month in history, we celebrate Martin Luther King Day to honor Dr. King’s contributions towards racial equality. Dr. King is most well known for his “I Have a Dream” speech, which caught the nation's attention with his powerful words about the nonviolence opportunity to create racial equality. Dr. King handled all of the obstacles in the fight for racial equality with nonviolent marches and gatherings as a strong leader. We remember Dr. king for having such bravery to speak out about all races uniting to be one. Dr. King’s dream was for his children to grow up in a world where people judged each other by their character rather than their skin color. America has come so far since the 1960’s, and we continue to fight the some of the same battles today. As we take a look back into history this month, try to remember Dr. King and what he did for everyone in our great Country.
