I learned so much from him. Last year, I had to research him, learned so much things. I felt sad that he got shot though. He did so much.

Not many people celebrate it, I guess besides the fact that some get a day off from work, so it's nice to see someone actually acknowledge it for more than that.

Farmer c's baby did a great artwork piece. Bubs posted it here. http://forums.teamlava.com/showthread.php?18050-Crazy-and-Cool-Farms!!!&p=211077&viewfull=1#post211077

So many great quotes from such a great man. One of my favorites: "Let no man pull you low enough to hate him."

I honestly think people should think more of it. There are many people of color in the US who dont even know who he is. They dont know what tears he saved them from.

Even I'm not an American but I got to learn about Martin Luther King back at uni, such a great man with remarkable changes in history.
