While we commemorated Dr. King's Birthday on January 15th as a holiday and I enjoyed the time off; I wanted to note the Civil Rights Movement and it's history.
The struggle of Great Americans of color has been significant throughout the entire history of this country. Where America has found it's greatness throughout this struggle is maintaining the dignity of human rights.
The women and men below have found success within their lives to bring light to the hurdle that skin color has played in the social environment of the United States of America. They all have significant contributions and also interesting focus.
In labor, the minority American found strength and comfort in unions. A sense of community has been the underlying theme throughout their citizenship. Even slave communities had methods of legalizing great events such as marriage. Their dignity throughout American history has been remarkably the forefront of the Civil Rights Movement.
Dr. King knew the strength sacrifice required to move mountains and provided that through strong religious commitment. It is that character which epitomized the African American and the movement to achieve equity.
This is a simple entry today to make note of the innate character that is so typical of these citizens and how very long the struggle for equality has been a venue of American politics.
