Some holidays or recognition days have been about getting but Martin Luther King 2015 Day specifically was a call to serve by a life that did nothing but serve. The man haunts us with questions and with his assassination. A life that accomplished the nearly impossible with nonviolence and ended with violence leaving unfinished business. But like him his flock inside and outside the church continued on by ensuring civil rights became fully engaged every Martin Luther King 2015 Day.
The Idea Became a Holiday: A Federal holiday the day falls on the third Monday of January. A Civil Rights activist Martin Luther King Jr. used unusual means to make a point against racial segregation. It all went much deeper than that. The movement took on a life of its own as the idea of equality spread into developing policies and laws that created more fair systems. Though his original way and idea have lessened the movement still raises its head in time of need such as in the marriage equality making the courthouse rounds presently.
