Martin Luther King Weekend is the long weekend on the third Monday in January that commemorates the great American civil rights leader.
[EDITOR:] Rev. Dr. King played a big role in the evolution of our own thinking. Some years ago, we wondered why we knew so little about this great American. Reading about him made us realize that Rev. Dr. King doesn’t only represent African Americans – he represents all of us and we are all part of his community. With that realization, everything changes.
