THE LIFE OF MARTIN LUTHER KING


REV. DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR.

There is a United States federal holiday marking the birthday of Luther King. It is observed on the third Monday of January each year, which is around the time he was born, January the 15th.

Obama's inauguration took place on Martin Luther King Day last week. A symbolic coincidence showing that America can vote for a black president now thanks to King's fight for racial equality.
