Honoring the Legacy of Martin Luther King Jr.
Martin Luther King Jr. Day is recognized on the third Monday of January each year and provides us a chance to remember his legacy.
Dr. King spent his life working towards creating an equitable world for all. He advocated for racial equality, as well as stood up for the working class and those who were oppressed across the nation.
On MLK Day, we would like to honor not only Dr. King, but all of those who worked tirelessly towards equality during the Civil Rights Movement.
To help spread his message, we would like to share the following quotes of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
