Today is international hug day. This day aims to bring people of the same family together. In addition to this, it would have the effect of being good for health and morale, by promoting the secretion of oxytocin

Re: Martin Luther King Day/ Important Day
Martin Luther King Jr. Day still falls on the third Monday in January (for referance of his birth 15 january) . Martin Luther King Jr. Day highlights the life and actions of Martin Luther King. Martin Luther King was the leader of the African-American civil rights movement. He is known for his actions against racial segregation in public transit and his fight for equal rights in the United States, and he is also known for his famous speech “I have a dream”. Martin Luther King was a strong supporter of non-violent activism and became the youngest Nobel Peace Prize winner. He was murdered in 1968 in Tennessee. After his death, a bill was introduced to make Martin Luther King’s birthday a national holiday. The first Martin Luther King Jr. Day was held in 1986. For me it's a man who defined a major part of history by defending his cause and those of thousands of victims of racism and it is thanks to him that progress has been possible and is still present today.

Re: Martin Luther King Day/ Important Day
the Martin Luther King day is a holiday in the United States which takes place the week of the birth of Martin Luther king. He was born on 15 January 1929 and therefore every year since 20 January 1986 which represents the date of the first establishment there is a holiday on the third Monday of the month of January. This day represents Martin Luther King’s fight against racial segregation. To make this known and above all to make his movement known He had made himself known in Montgomery by organizing a boycott of the city bus company, guilty of tolerating segregation in his vehicles, as a result his movement had ended up triumphing by applying the principles of non-violence

Re: Martin Luther King Day/ Important Day
Martin Luther King Day is a public holiday in the United States. It marks the anniversary date of the birth of Martin Luther King Jr who was an important pacifist activist in the fight against racial segregation in the USA in the 60s. MLK was an important person who shaped the USA as we know it today. That's why, since 1986, the third monday of January is a public holiday, in tribute to Martin Luther King, born the 15th january 1929. In NBA, the MLK day is a big event because most players pay tribute to Martin Luther King. This year, the MLK day was marked by a big opposition between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Boston Celtics (the two most titled teams in the NBA) who won the match 139-107.

Re: Martin Luther King Day/ Important Day
On August 28, 1963, Martin Luther King appealed to 250,000 people for a country where all men would share the same rights. Since that day the phrase "i have a dream" became the symbol of the black cause in America. Unfortunately Martin Luther King died murdered by a white segregationist on April 4, 1968 in Memphis while supporting a garbage strike.
These planned initiatives have therefore been destroyed by one man and despite a positive development discrimination is still present.

Re: Martin Luther King Day/ Important Day
The Martin Luther King day (MLK day) is a statutory holiday in the U.S. It marks the birth of MLK. Every year, he’s celebrating the third Monday of the month. That day is very important in the NBA’s tone because it is considered the Christmas day with more than a dozen games playing this day. As Todd Boyd explains, (Professor at the University of South California) His players are mostly black and, culturally, basketball is recognized as a black sport, unlike other American sports. Basketball, combined with big cities, is more cosmopolitan. And the NBA embraces Dr. King’s values as no other league will ever do.” So this is a day of remembrance and tribute for MLK.

Re: Martin Luther King Day/ Important Day
Hi, this week have to talk about MLK day or any other special day of the year. This is why I chose to discuss the Fourth of July.
'Independence Day' is a federal holiday in the US commemorating the Declaration of Independence of the United States, on July 4, 1776. In this day, the Continental Congress declared that the thirteen American colonies were no longer subject to the monarch of Britain and were now united, free, and independent states ! It's a day of celebration in the United States like the 14th of July for us in France, there are fireworks, parades, carnivals, fairs and lots of other fun things ! It's a day of gathering for families spending a summer day together, for a meal, often around a good barbecue... or a little picnic !
It's the National day of the USA.

Re: Martin Luther King Day/ Important Day
The state of Florida gives prominence to Martin Luther King Day celebrations, it is a special day that is a holiday. The reason is that Florida is a former slave state and the African-American population is large. The day of the Reverend Martin Luther King is therefore very important for Florida and many cities like Miami, Orlando or Tampa make public tributes.

After the death of Martin Luther King Jr in 1968, Democrat Representative John Conyers introduced a bill in Congress to make Luther King's birthday a national holiday, highlighting the work of Martin Luther King alongside unions. The latter took up this proposal and promoted it in the 1970s.

Re: Martin Luther King Day/ Important Day
Martin Luther King is an African American person. He was born on January 15, 1929 and died assassinated on April 4, 1968 at the age of 39. He studied at the Faculty of Theology at Boston University and subsequently held several positions. As a civil rights activist, theologian, preacher, writer, minister and others. He participated in many important events in history, such as the rally for freedom in Georgia in 1962 but also on his arrival in Montgomery he fought for civil rights where people of black color were victims of physical and other ill-treatment and others . From his arrest due to the fact that he protects civil rights in Birmingham, he comes to write a treaty which in the future will become known treasurer because this one demonstrates his fight against segregation, the president himself will defend it, sir Kennedy. After having made known his movement and his acts for his rights while defending them and that these take a beautiful scale, he will manage to extend this notoriety towards the north. He will fight other traumas, and he is a great man for the American nation and for the world.

Re: Martin Luther King Day/ Important Day
Martin Luther King day is a public holiday in the United States. It takes place every 3rd Monday of January in reference to the day of birth of Martin Luther King which is January 15. This year was January 21. This holiday was not put in place immediately after his death, but a few years later after long years of political discussion. So we celebrated this day for the first time in 1986. This allows us to never forget all that this great man did during his life for equality between white and black in the United States.

Re: Martin Luther King Day/ Important Day
Martin Luther King Day is a relatively new federal holiday and there are few long standing traditions. It is seen as a day to promote equal rights for all Americans, regardless of their background. Some educational establishments mark the day by teaching their pupils or students about the work of Martin Luther King and the struggle against racial segregation and racism. In recent years, federal legislation has encouraged Americans to give some of their time on this day as volunteers in citizen action groups.
Martin Luther King Day, also known as Martin Luther King’s birthday and Martin Luther King Jr Day, is combined with other days in different states. For example, it is combined with Civil Rights Day in Arizona and New Hampshire, while it is observed together with Human Rights Day in Idaho. It is also a day that is combined with Robert E. Lee’s birthday in some states. The day is known as Wyoming Equality Day in the state of Wyoming.

Re: Martin Luther King Day/ Important Day
So today it's the topic wich I had supposed who was choose, the Martin Lurther King day. So it's important because in USA more pricisly in NBA, it's a very big game night for each nba team with 14 games in during the day. In France the first game was at 20h until 4h30 for the game in the west coast. So for a NBA fan like me it's an important day.

Re: Martin Luther King Day/ Important Day
I will speak of October 12, 1492. It is the discovery of America by the explorer Christopher Colomb.
On the night of 11 to 12 October 1492, in an expedition commissioned by the Spanish court, Christopher Columbus (Cristofo Colombo) becomes the first person in modern history to find a road between Europe and America.
His mission was to take him and his men to India, but it is rather on an island of the Bahamas archipelago that they land after 9 weeks at sea.
Columbus names the island «San Salvador», wishing to thank God for having made it find land after this long journey.
In all, the Italian sailor will make 4 transatlantic trips to the Spanish court.
