Let's just take a moment and think of how Martin Luther King affected our lives.
He went through hell and back just to show that everyone should be treated equally.
He didn't use violoence, which is now a social norm to end conflicts.
He died for everyone to be equal which people now take for granted.
We celebrate this day and people are just looking the other way lk it's nothing. 
If he hadn't stood up for what he believed in we wouldn't have our president elected into another term let alone his first.
we would still have separate bathrooms, restaurants, water fountains, schools, stores everthing would be different.
Let's take a momnet to thank Dr. King who is hopefully up in Heaven enjoying himself.
