Martin Luther King Day

Martin Luther King Day honors the life and legacy of one of the visionary leaders of the Civil
Rights Movement and recipient of the 1964 Nobel Prize for Peace. At a young age, Martin Luther
King, Jr. showed strong promise, skipping the 9ᵗʰ and 12ᵗʰ grades and entering Morehouse College at
the age of 15. In late 1955, Martin Luther King, Jr. received his Doctorate degree in Theology, and
moved to Montgomery, Alabama, with his wife, Coretta Scott King, to preach at a Baptist church.
There, as in many southern states, he witnessed the indignities suffered by African-
Americans as a result of racism, discrimination, and unjust laws. One law required all black
passengers to ride in the back of public buses and to give up their seats to white passengers when the
front of the bus was full. Dr. King knew that this law violated the rights of every African-American.
On December 1, 1955, a courageous black passenger, Rosa Parks, was arrested and jailed for
refusing to give up her seat to a white man. In response to the arrest, black leaders organized a
boycott of public buses in the city.
In 1957, Dr. King and other ministers founded the Southern Christian Leadership Conference
to advance the non-violent struggle against racism.
One of the key events of the Civil Rights Movement was the March on Washington on
August 23, 1963. A crowd of more than 250,000 people gathered in Washington, DC. And, led by
Dr. King, they marched to the Capitol Building to support the passing of laws that guaranteed equal
civil rights to every American citizen.
On the steps of Lincoln Memorial that day, Dr. King delivered one of his most powerful and
eloquent speeches, entitled “I have a Dream”. The March on Washington was one of the largest
gatherings of people that the nation’s capital had ever seen – and no violence occurred. The
following year, in 1964, Dr. King was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for leading non-violent
demonstrations.
On April 4, 1968, Martin Luther King, Jr. was assassinated while supporting a workers’
strike¹ in Memphis, Tennessee. He was just 39 years old.
In 1986, President Ronald Reagan declared the third Monday in January a Federal Holiday in
honor of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. On Monday, January 20, 1986, people across² the country
celebrated the first official Martin Luther King Day, the only federal holiday to commemorate an
African-American.

Notes : 1 strike : grève; 2 across: à travers.
