Martin Luther King Day is a holiday I last celebrated in grade school. At the two jobs I've had since my undergrad days, we only received six or seven official days off per year, the Christian Anglo-Saxon holidays. No Chinese New Years, no Yom Kippur. A month of for Ramadan, I agree, would have been excessive, but MLK Day seems like it deserves to be honored more widely in the U.S., race being such a central part of American history and identity.
