Der Martin Luther King-Day ist zugleich „National Day of Service“, der die demokratische Bedeutung gemeinnützigen Engagements betont. Präsident Obama half an dem Tag zum Beispiel in einer Suppenküche aus und nannte ihn „a symbol of how our Democracy works.“ (2/3) #MLKDay #hist4dem #hist4demAktion

Donald Trump lässt lieber sich statt Martin Luther King ehren. Seit über zehn Jahren war am #MLKDay der Eintritt in die Nationalparks frei. 2026 ist das nicht mehr so. Stattdessen steht Trumps Geburtstag auf der Liste der „fee-free days“. Autokratische Allüren statt Würdigung der Demokratie. (1/3)

In these times, it seems that we are no closer to realizing Martin Luther King Jr's dream than the days of the civil rights movement. However, reading about what he tried to do always makes me believe that it's possible. To MLK! To his dream! #MLKDay

So there is a Martin Luther King Day but no Ella Baker Day. Remembering her is a reminder that history often celebrates voices and forgets the hands that made change possible. She didn’t just fight racism, she fought the patriarchy within the movement. Ella Baker believed leadership should come from the people not just one figurehead

🕊️ Today we honor the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
His work reminds us that equality, dignity, and justice are ongoing commitments. At PCB, we continue striving for a more accessible and inclusive world for people who are blind or have low vision.
How are you reflecting or giving back today?

I Marched In MLK's Last March: Glenda's Story (Short Documentary)
Watch: https://youtube.com/watch?v=iYcnoBd2hBA
This is from the "Local Lives" documentary series I directed and produced. This episode is not only timely because of MLK day, but also because it discusses protesting and why people stand up for their communities.
Boosts welcome!

After giving lifetime blood donation #47 today, I visited the MLK memorial in Seattle and reflected on the new article in the South Seattle Emerald looking back at the efforts to rename Empire Way to MLK Way before I was born.

On today's (1/19) #MLKDay show - Trump is a pathetic man. Minneapolis welcomes, then says goodbye to, a Nazi. The Penn Center's Dr. Robert Adams. The ICE Pastor??? More ICE capades. The hit the MN Ag and Construction industry is taking. Even more angry Nazis? https://soundcloud.com/user-587903571/the-matt-mcneil-show-january-19-2026

Musical Interlude: I first heard Joan Baez singing this, which was pretty damned white of me, I have to admit. I did a little digging and found other less-pale versions that were more impactful. I remember singing this to myself at my first gay rights march...wow...memories coming back!
Still, this is a stirring rendition, and this is a good day to share it.
"Oh Freedom," performed by the Golden Gospel Singers.

No surprise.
Trump thinks Blacks should be chained to boats or picking cotton.
Or cleaning bathrooms.
Just like 1915.
Fuck him.

"Girl in a Green Cap," Laura Wheeler Waring, 1930.
Waring (1887-1948) was THE great portraitist of the Harlem Renaissance, painting many of the notable Black people of the era.
Born in Hartford, CT, the daughter of a minister, her family was educated and cultured, and her ancestors had been part of the Underground Railroad. She attended the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts in Philadelphia, graduating in 1914. She traveled briefly in Europe, returning home when WWI started, but returned in the 20s, where she honed her style and exhibited in Paris galleries.
Returning to the US in 1927, she was commissioned to do portraits of figures of the Harlem Renaissance; this project, along with her work teaching at Cheyney University, an HBCU outside Philadelphia, was to consume the rest of her life. Her work is now featured in some of the country's top museums and galleries.
The subject of this portrait is unknown, but her calm confidence and self-assurance, and that knockout outfit, are beyond question.
Happy Portrait Monday!
From the Howard University Gallery of Art, Washington, DC.

Loved this piece on @discogs - looking at MLK's life through his recorded speeches, the music that inspired him, and the music he inspired.
