Click here for an article by HamdenRice at Daily Kos entitled Most of you have no Idea what Martin Luther King actually did.
King was born on January 15, 1929, and the official name for the holiday, celebrated on the third Monday in January, is Birthday of Martin Luther King, Jr.
HamdenRice says he learned from his father during an angry discussion that "Dr. King ended the terror of living in the south."
Many people seem to feel that King "gave that great speech," and "marched." Yes, he did, but he did so much more. Happy birthday, Dr. King.
