Americans are encouraged to give back to their communities on Martin Luther King Day (Credit: Americorps.gov)

Martin Luther King Day, which will be observed on January 17, 2022, is about more than honoring the legacy of the American civil rights activist. It is the only US federal holiday designated as a national day of service — a "day on, not a day off." Americans are encouraged to celebrate the occasion by participating in service activities to help their local communities.

                      God bless MLK. If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't even be alive right now. My dad is black and my mother is hispanic (very lightskin) If a black man and a white passing woman married, then it was illegal.

                        Wow! That is so cool. I am African American but I am adopted by two white parents. I am with you, if it weren't for MLK and others, my parents and I would have never been with each other!
