A perfect winter weekend here was enjoyed. But now it's the dreaded time of the week...time to drag oneself out of a warm bed and back into the rat race for another work filled week. And contrary to the dismay of the rotten current administration, who have eliminated Martin Luther King Jr Day and Juneteenth as free entry days for two holidays honoring African Americans, We the People will still observe them and celebrate the life of a swell and brilliant man. HWSNBN only wishes and will wish he would be as highly regarded as Martin Luther King Jr, but will fall way short, and will always be associated with negative. Martin Luther King Jr is widely regarded as a great man, a pivotal leader in the American Civils Rights Movement, known for his powerful advocacy for racial equality and justice through nonviolent protest. His leadership coupled with his iconic speeches have cemented his legacy, earning him a Nobel Peace Prize and ensuing his enduring impact on the world....and we are in such desperate need of another of him right now.

There now? Are we all awake?
Happy Monday!
Nice.
ReplyDeleteWonderful Photographs, and Yes we are celebrating MLK today here in the Lil City by the Red. Also, over in Mississippi, they are celebrating two birthdays: Martin Luther King and General Robert E. Lee. That's Mississippi for you.
ReplyDeleteRobert E Lee? My God you can tell that is Mississippi right?
DeleteHappy MLK Day; thoughts and quotes we need to remember and to put into service in our lives.
ReplyDeleteI could also put a couple hot mens into service, too, you know ....
That's you always lending help helping hands with public service well at least for the men!
DeleteI'm going to the dentist. I'm not so sure my wallet will be celebrating today.
ReplyDeleteWell unless you're getting what I had done your wallet won't complain too much. Christ, thank God I have my hsas and my insurance covered some of it otherwise I probably could have got a new Mazda.
DeleteJust wait; it won't be long before MLK day is turned into Donald Duck day.
ReplyDeleteHe already did it. He removed that day as a Payday for many places and substituted it with his birthday. He's a rat bastard.
DeleteBeautiful Mood Board.
ReplyDeleteTotally awesome mood board, Mads!
ReplyDeleteI did have the day free today. Perks of being a Wallflower.
And all that chocolate, hunny!!!
XOXO
What a truly honorable, decent man Martin Luther King was. He would be apalled at the goings on in the U.S.A.
ReplyDeleteThe whole world just gets worse and worse.
The whole world gets worse and worse you're right, unfortunately the United States is leading most of it.
DeleteWhat a swell post!
ReplyDeleteYou’re just full of surprises, aren’t you!?!
ReplyDeleteshow shines a light in a dark world
ReplyDeleteThe best to all on MLK Day :)
ReplyDeleteThe critics will rue the day as they denigrate MLK !
The reactionary right always go on about a colorblind society, as they themselves embrace racism.

A beautiful MLK Day mood board. Is there such a thing as a cock on the wall instead of a fly on the wall?
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
There is Janie, at least in my house. It gets tiring having the swat at cocks instead of flies.
DeleteWonderful collection!
ReplyDeleteA wonderful way to start the week,
ReplyDeleteThat last whopper! A needed mood board too for the day. We sure do have a famine of role models these days of those who fight for We The People...sadly.
