Today is the day that has be designated by the Federal Government to celebrate the legacy of Martin Luther King Jr.
MLkJR day is not supposed to be a day off, but instead a day of service. We are to honor King by public acts of service, marchs, breakfasts, luncheons and concerts.
What about the other 355 days of the year? Do you march? Do you vote? Do you speak out for the voiceless? Do you contact your legislature when you disagree with laws that do not support your values? Do you sign petitions? Are you registered to vote and if you cannot have you applied to get your rights restored?
Consistent Civic Engagement is the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. not lunches, breakfasts, speechs or concerts..
Walk in your purpose and inform, advocate and agitate.
Engage.
