All of our great war heroes share Memorial Day. All of our great presidents share President's Day. Yet King - a man who was a phony, a cheater, a traitor, and a sexual degenerate - gets a day of his own. I have a big problem with that." - Author unknown I've given this a lot of thought, in view of all the negative articles concerning Martin Luther King, Jr. that fly around the Internet at this time of year, and I'm coming out in support of its status as a national holiday. In fact, I can't think of another holiday that better sums up all that America has come to represent.

Native American Holidays In Your School YOU can make this happen! In our experience, most teachers are very interested in the truth of the history of Native people in this country and are anxious to receive appropriate material for their teaching experiences. By delivering this letter to your school or your children's teacher, you can set them on the course of exploring Native Americans as Native Americans see themselves, rather than from the point of view of most texts that explain the history of the US only from the perspective of the victors of the wars that took place here. At the same time, you will bring recognition of the extent of the work that has been done towards making a Native American Holiday a reality and will perhaps encourage them to taking those steps themselves. Lets raise some awareness out there! Do your bit and either copy and paste

In Support For A POW/MIA National Holiday View Current Signatures Sign the Petition To: U.S. Congress This petition is to show support for the POW/MIA issue from all wars and conflicts. The current POW/MIA Recognition Day must be proclaimed by the President of the United States each year. The POW/MIA issue is a very important part of American history. The many sacrifices made by the military personnel and especially their families. Imagine never meeting your mother , father or even your grandparents. The current POW/MIA Flag is already nationally recognized by congress. The POW/MIA issue was brought to the fore front during the Vietnam era. It goes way back in time before that. There were many POW/MIAs before and after the Vietnam Era. This is the list of wars and conflicts for the last 228 years. War of the Revolution, War of 1812, Mexican War, Indian Wars, Civil War, Spanish-American War, World War I, World War II, Cold War, Somalia, Yugoslavia, and now Gulf War II. Then you have the veterans who did come home, but are a prisoner in their own mind. It is a tragedy they have been forgotten. They are the American Heroes of this great country we all enjoy today. We, the undersigned request the U.S. Congress to introduce a bill and pass it, to make POW/MIA Recognition Day the third Friday in September a National Holiday.

Besides, the above quote is wrong. Columbus Day still is enough of a holiday to be considered national and it honors just one individual. In fact, since Christopher Columbus did not discover America first, an argument can be made that he deserves treatment equal to King's, pursuant to modern American standards. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day is the perfect reflection of modern America, however, so it wins honors as the most perfect American holiday. Let's examine the top ten reasons why this is so:

Metallic Confetti Metallic Confetti Metallic Confetti The 4th of July, US Independence Day A group of settlers known as Pilgrims settled in a place known as Plymouth. The settlements grew and 13 colonies were established. Although the settlers original fled England to avoid religious persecution they found themselves under British rule. The colonies struggled for independence and autonomy from the clutches of England for many years. England was far away and was unable to be actively involved with the welfare of the colonists. They did, however, levy heavy taxes on all products going to the colonies. In 1767, England placed a tax on all tea used by the American colonist. The colonists protested "taxation without representation" and refused to allow the tea to be unloaded. In 1773, colonists dressed as Native Americans, boarded ships from the East India Company and threw 300 chests of tea into the Boston Harbor. This became known as the Boston Tea Party and the road to freedom was begun.

Labor Day is a special holiday set aside to honor workers and the contributions that they make to their jobs and to society. The History of Labor Day There is some doubt and confusion as to when or by whom Labor Day was started. Here are some points of importance to how Labor Day Started. April 15, 1872 - Toronto Trades Assembly (TTA) (possibly the original labour body in Canada) organized the first North American "workingman's demonstration". Some 10,000 Torontonians turned out to watch a parade and to listen to speeches calling for abolition of the law which decreed that "trade unions were criminal conspiracies in restraint of trade". September 3, 1872 - Members of seven unions in Ottawa Canada organized a parade that stretched for more than a mile long. The parade stopped at the home of Prime Minister Sir John A. MacDonald. They brought him into a carriage and marched to the Ottawa City Hall by torch light. The Prime Minister was aware of the discontent of workers with the laws which made unions illegal so he made this declaration that his party would "Sweep away all such barbarous laws from the statute books". These laws were repealed by Parliament later that year and the tradition of holding parades and demonstrations was continued on into the early 1880's. July 22, 1882 - The Toronto Trades and Labour Council (the successor to the TTA) organized the annual demonstration and parade. Peter J. McGuire of New York was invited to attend and speak at this occasion.

Independence Day: America's Birthday Summertime: the smell of the barbecue, the roar of holiday crowds at events throughout the land, family, picnics and the beach. It's America's annual birthday party and everyone is invited. History of Independence Day Schoolchildren in America learn the basic history of the events surrounding the Fourth of July, but the details of this monumental occasion in American history somehow fall through the cracks. Although July 4th is celebrated as America's official split from Britain's rule and the beginning of the American Revolution, the actual series of events show that the process took far longer than a single day. The original resolution was introduced by Richard Henry Lee of Virginia on June 7, 1776, and called for the Continental Congress to declare the United States free from British rule. Three days later a committee headed by Thomas Jefferson was appointed to prepare an appropriate writing for the occasion. The document that we know as the Declaration of Independence was adopted by Congress on July 4th although the resolution that led to the writing of the Declaration was actually approved two days earlier. All of this had occurred with some of the delegates to the Congress not even present; New York, for example, did not even vote on the resolution until July 9th.

HOME About MLK Perspectives Roadways Across America ... Our commitment Making the calendar By Paul Andrews Seattle Times staff reporter The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., who knew it takes time for attitudes to change, would not have been surprised that nearly two decades were required to make his birthday a legal holiday. If anything, King, whose magnificent dream always had a pragmatic cast, would have been surprised that it has happened at all. His birthday is today. The official holiday, on the third Monday of January, begins next year. To place the new date in some perspective, consider: It is the first new holiday since 1948, when Memorial Day was created as a "prayer for peace" day. And it's only the third this century (the other is Veterans Day, created as Armistice Day in 1926 to honor those who died in World War I). King is the only American besides George Washington to have a national holiday designated for his birthday (those of Abraham Lincoln, Thomas Jefferson, Robert E. Lee and others have been celebrated in some states but not nationwide). Internationally, King is one of the few social leaders of any country to be honored with a holiday (Mahatma Gandhi's birthday is observed in India). Such status by a member of a country's racial minority is almost unheard of. Generally, the honor is reserved for military or religious figures.

When in doubt, tell the truth. - Mark Twain Part of the sercret of success in life is to eat what you like and let the food fight it out inside. - Mark Twain Celebrated in the USA on the fourth Thursday of November, this national holiday originated in the 1600's. Although there are different versions of exactly how this day became a tradition, there is no doubt that it is a time to give thanks for what we have - as individuals, as families and as a nation. Usually celebrated with family members and friends, the modern day Thanksgiving is thought of by many to be a day of feasting on good food (including the traditional turkey with stuffing), the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade on the television in the morning and football in the afternoon, good conversation and an overall feeling of well-being and gratitude. Below we have listed some of the many, many resources on the WWW about this annual, historical celebration. The First Thanksgiving Celebrated in the USA on the fourth Thursday of November, this national holiday originated in the 1600's. History varies somewhat but there is no doubt that it is a time to give thanks for what we have - as individuals, as families and as a nation. Washington's 1789 Thanksgiving Proclamation Misplaced for over 100 years, this is a copy of our first President's proclamation about the holiday.
