“Dr. King dedicated his life to advancing social justice and equal opportunity for all. But more than forty years after his death, there is still much work left to be done. Through service, we honor his legacy by helping our neighbors, strengthening our communities and meeting the challenges we face together. I encourage all Americans to not only continue Dr. King’s work through service today, but to make service a part of your lives every day,” said Obama about this historical day.

BCK Says: How have you celebrated Martin Luther King day?

    I really like that the First Family are instilling a sense of giving back and making a difference to their daughters.

    What a fitting way to celebrate and honor the legacy of Martin Luther King Jr.

    There comes a time when you need a certain call when the world must come together as one. There are people dying, and its time lend a hand to life, the greatest gift of all. We can’t go on pretending day by day that someone somewhere will soon make a change. We are all apart of Gods great big family, and the truth your love is all we need. We are the world…

    This family reminds me of the song ‘We Are The World’. We should all adopt this attitude.

    I hope the “coolness’ of President Obama’s even temper brings him some peace. It seems he does all he can to promote man’s humanity for man and still people constantly damn him for what he does or what he doesn’t do. I’ve not seen another president who has been under such scrutiny in all the sitting presidents I’ve lived under in this country. I continue to wish the best to him and his lovely family.

    I see Malia is almost looking at her parents eye to eye. I think Sasha looks like her mom and dad. She has her mother’s complexion and hue,still, I see alot of President Obama in her features. She and her sister are true dolls. It is always a joy to see and hear about whatever they do.
