ASA Books Celebrates Dr. King |
|
|
Today, ASA Books celebrates Martin Luther King Jr. Day. It is on this day, many of us stop and say thank you to a man who lived and died for a cause bigger than himself, but whose life’s purpose has outlived his earthly presence and continues to impact the world. ASA Books is taking the time to celebrate the life lessons Dr. King lived and taught. We will be reminded on this day of the importance of understaing the true value of education, actively practicing equality, non-violent strategies to reach a resolution, and above all, love. |
