Invite: Martin Luther King,Jr. Day on the Net
Holidays on the Net invites you to Martin Luther King, Jr. Day on the Net. A Celebration of the Man and the Holiday.
Each year on the third Monday of January schools, federal offices, post office and banks across America close as we celebrate the birth, the life and the dream of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
It is a time for the nation to remember the injustices that Dr. King faced. A time to remember his fight for the freedom, equality, and dignity of all races and peoples. A time to remember the message of “change through non-violence”.
The holiday is celebrated on Monday Jan. 15, 2007 and the theme is: Remember! Celebrate! Act! A Day On, Not A Day Off!!
