Seattle Celebrates Martin Luther King Jr. Day


What you can't do today: go to the bank, buy hard liquor, or use the post office. What you can do today: march in a parade downtown, volunteer a few of your hours for the betterment of all humanity, and take a minute to remember what Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and the civil rights movement were all about. This morning, we re-read Dr. King's Letter From A Birmingham Jail and were inspired again by his words. "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly," he wrote. We're going to let those words fuel our actions today. Are you and yours doing anything in particular to recognize the holiday?
