Positive News Stories to start your day!
Happy Friday!
Today is…
Humanitarian Day
#HumanitarianDay
The day could be celebrated by wearing white in order to show respect for and remember those who worked to end segregation in the United States. More could be learned about courageous fighters for equality by watching documentaries such as Eyes on the Prize, King: A Filmed Record… Montgomery to Memphis, Freedom Riders, or Brother Outsider: The Life of Bayard Rustin. It would also be fitting to read a book that deals with segregation today. You could also visit a museum such as the National Civil Rights Museum, which is located at the Lorraine Motel where King was shot, or the National Museum of African American History and Culture.
Some civil rights leaders besides Dr. King who have since passed away whom you could learn about today include:
- Medgar Evers
- Bayard Rustin
- Rosa Parks
- Fannie Lou Hamer
- W.E.B. Du Bois
- James Groppi
- Thurgood Marshall
- A. Philip Randolph
- Ella Baker
- Ralph Abernathy
- Fred Shuttlesworth
