Today we honor the life and accomplishments of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. The minister and activist who became the most visible spokesperson and leader in the civil rights movement in the United States in the 1950s and '60s. Two of his many famous quotes are "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter." and "The time is always right to do what is right." He is also well recognized with his speech "I Have a Dream" during the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom on August 28, 1963, where he called for civil and economic rights and an end to racism in the United States. Unfortunately, we are still fighting MLK Jr.'s fight against racism today. It is up to us, the people can work together ending racism and finish what Martin Luther King Jr. started โ๏ธโค๏ธ๐ก๏ธ
