Celebrating Martin Luther King Day

Celebrating Martin Luther King Day — Here in the U.S., it’s a national holiday – Martin Luther King Day. Despite the fact that offices and schools are closed, it’s not a holiday that invites the drawing inward of many other holidays. Instead, Martin Luther King Day is meant as a day for community service initiatives and programs promoting interracial cooperation: a day on, not a day off. However you choose to observe the holiday, and whether or not you live in the U.S., I recommend spending, as I did, a few moments listening to Martin Luther King’s own words, as archived by The Martin Luther King, Jr. Papers Project at Stanford University.
