Google celebrates Martin Luther King, Jr.'s Day

Monday, January 21, 2013



Today Google America celebrates Martin Luther King's Day, a holiday in the US - which means no school, no work, and no open government office as far as the US is concerned. As we might notice, Google has changed their usual Google logo into a Google logo with Martin Luther King's face on it to commemorate the holiday. Clicking on it will initiate the Google Search with the keyword "Martin Luther King, Jr."

Anyway, who's Martin Luther King, Jr? Well, according to the top 1 page showing in the search engine result, Wikipedia, Martin Luther King, Jr. was an American clergyman activist and leader in the African-American Civil Rights Movement. He is known for his role in the advancement of civil rights using nonviolent civil disobedience. This nonviolent civil disobedience uses passive resistance, and was employed as a means to battle racial discrimination towards black Americans. King's movement eventually won the hearts of most Americans and had made people realize the wrongness of discrimination towards other races. King has become a national icon in the history of American progressivism.
