I agree that Martin Luther King, Jr. should be remembered because he did so SO much good for so many people in MANY states. I am from Louisiana and one year older than he was but he helped me to help others to get blacks regisrered to vote, drink in courthouse bathrooms, use courthouse restrooms, etc. Many faced guns. Now, blacks/whites are elected officials, use the SAME restroomd/bathrooms, attend meetings and discuss community issues, etc.because of him it is wonderful.. I applaud alphas and others for the Washinhton, DC monument (which is great)
Happy Birthday MLK we love you .
