On Monday, January 15, Americans will celebrate the life and achievements of civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. (MLK). Born in Atlanta, Georgia on January 15, 1929, the activist was originally named Michael King after his father, a pastor at Ebenezer Baptist Church. However, after a trip to Europe in 1934, King Sr. changed both his and his son’s name to Martin Luther in honor of the German theologian who initiated the Protestant Reformation in the 16th century.

                      Muther Luther King really inspired me in my dreams and I am so Thankful that he is in a special place. King taught us a lot and now we learned from him from left to right. He made all the black fokes become who they are now so to all those black fokes stay strong and stay safe , Love MLK!
