Marin Luther King deserves a holiday. He was a gentleman and a strong leader . We combined Washington and Lincoln and threw in all the other presidents. Juneteenth is a significant date for all of America. Now if we kick Columbus to the curb it would be great. Who needs to celebrate a murderous explorer. Christmas is religious no right being a paid holiday. And do we really need an entire month devoted to Black History? Time to join hands and have every month devoted to All Americans . I am all for keeping history alive. Celebrating the accomplishments of each groups of Americans. The struggles the growth. This country was built on the backs and hard labor of People of All Races, Religion, Male, Female and other identified but not acknowledged humans. Does not matter we all bleed red!
Let's honor the history, cut the political BS and work together. Our veterans still cannot get medical care, Children go hungry and are abused, animals are abandoned, crime is often against those within the same community . People look around and try to be kind to others. We together are the future if the USA!
