Martin Luther King Jr. Day
MLK day is a federal holiday celebrated in the United States and around the world. It is observed on the 3rd Monday of January each year in remembrance of Civil Rights Leader, Martin Luther King Junior. Former President, Ronald Reagan, signed the holiday into law in 1983. Many people use MLK day as a day of service to their communities and reflection on our country’s civil rights history. There are a variety of events around Metro Detroit.
