We don’t have school on Monday due to Martin Luther King Jr.  Day.Schools across America close because he made a difference in the world for people of s darker skin color,before he did some thing about the problem before darker skinned people had to sit in the back of the bus and he stopped from having different bathrooms for white people and dark skinned people.Here is a famous quote from him:

“I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin,but by the content of their character.” -Martin Luther King, Jr. 

I think that this means that he wants his children to live in a place where they don’t get judged by their skin color but by their personality.He was very important so there can be some people that celebrate the day on January 21st so i do not think that we should have school which we don’t have school anyways. Martin Luther King Jr. was born on January 15th 1929 in Atlanta,Georgia he died on April 4th 1968 when he was the age of 39 he died in Memphis,Tennessee.
