美國民眾馬丁·路德·金日弘揚社區(qū)精神
美國民眾星期天慶祝馬丁·路德·金日，紀(jì)念美國民權(quán)運動的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人馬丁·路德·金。他在領(lǐng)導(dǎo)民權(quán)時堅持非暴力理念。
馬丁·路德·金日是每年一月的第三個星期一。美國人民在這一天紀(jì)念這位20世紀(jì)50年代和60年代領(lǐng)導(dǎo)民權(quán)運動的領(lǐng)袖。他在美國南方組織了反對種族隔離的抗 議，以及為黑人爭取平等和選舉權(quán)的運動。
美國各地有很多民眾通過社區(qū)服務(wù)來紀(jì)念馬丁·路德·金為終止種族主義付出的努力。美國國會1994年為鼓勵這種社區(qū)精神，將馬丁·路德·金日定位聯(lián)邦假日。
特朗普總統(tǒng)星期五在華盛頓參加了一個紀(jì)念馬丁·路德·金的活動，贊揚他為公正與平等而進(jìn)行的非暴力奮斗。
Americans on Monday celebrate Martin Luther King Jr. Day, honoring a man who embodied the U.S. civil rights movement and who understood that the success of the movement depended on its nonviolent principles.
Every year on the third Monday in January, Americans honor the slain civil rights leader who in the 1950s and 1960s organized nonviolent protests against Southern segregation, the struggle for black equality and voting rights.
Many around the country spend the holiday commemorating King’s tireless work to end racism by participating in community service projects. The U.S. Congress honored that community spirit in 1994 by designating the King holiday as a national day of service.
President Donald Trump paid tribute to King during a ceremony in Washington Friday, praising his “peaceful crusade for justice and equality.”
