\u201cI have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.\u201d
\n\u2013 Martin Luther King, I Have a Dream Quote<\/em><\/p>\n

Martin Luther King Jr. was an important leader of the civil rights movement here in America during the 1950s and 60s. The holiday was created as a day to remember his fight for the freedom, equality, and dignity of all races and peoples and as a time to remember the message of change through nonviolence.<\/p>\n

Here are some links about the history of this holiday including a biography of Dr. King, a quiz for kids and a junior crossword.\u00a0 Maybe you can do something special with the kids to acknowledge the day.<\/p>\n
