Remembering a hero

Perhaps you have the day off today. Or you might be hard at work. Maybe you’re studying for an upcoming exam.
Whatever you’re doing today, take a few minutes to remember the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Our country wouldn’t be as great as it is without the hard work, sweat, and literal blood of Dr. King and many more people dedicated to improving the lives of others.
Today I thought about how many advantages I have, thanks to the civil rights movement. I wouldn’t be living where I do, I wouldn’t be as educated as I am, and I wouldn’t be free to live my life the way I am. Today I remember how much I have to be thankful for.
Remember.
