Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day!!

On Monday, we celebrate Martin Luther King Jr. Day!!

Some People Celebrate Martin Luther King Jr.'s life by working for no money in a "National Day of Service"

Parks that usually cost $$ for admission that are free (no admission $$) on Monday.

Martin Luther King Jr. worked to make the laws equal (the same/similar) for everyone, rather than different for people with dark brown skin color.

People who protested that the United States Laws were not good for everybody often sang this song while they walked.  Shall = will( = future happening).  "Shall" is an old word-- not used often now.  Overcome -- means "win" or "keep going" when it's really, really hard to win or keep going.


You will overcome the difficulty of learning English soon.




More information about Martin Luther King Jr. (made for children, but I like it.)

The next song was written for Martin Luther King Jr. just after he died.


What helps you keep going when you feel like stopping?  What do you think about?
