Martin Luther King Day
Happy martin luther king day for those of us in the states. He was a very influential POC who stood up for his beliefs on equality. my question to you is who is an influential POC that you look up to?
Here's some motivational and inspirational quotes from Dr. MLK Jr.

Although some people may not consider him as influential, I really look up to Jimi Hendrix. He was an American rock guitarist, singer, and songwriter. His music has been so inspirational to me!

my dad puts his national anthem on blast every time I visit
Happy Martin Luther King day! 🙂
Martin Luther King Jr. is one of those whom I really looked up to growing up because of his hope that we all get along and work together for a better future despite coming from different backgrounds.
Also, my late best friend in Chicago, CM, was originally from Jamaica. We became best friends at work back in 2013 and she passed away in September of last year after a nearly 2 month battle with pancreatic cancer. It was said at her funeral that she never met a stranger ... and she lived her life the way Martin Luther King would have hoped for, as well. 👍

that's really cool! I am sorry to hear she passed but it sounds like you and others were very fortunate to have known her

Thank you! 🙂🤗

Thanks for your post on Martin Luther King Jr. I admire the silent heroes in history that we don't hear a lot about in movies or the history books. They are or were great supporters of progress.

that is so true. not all heroes get to down in history, but their efforts are still valid and should be appreciated
