Kids say the darndest things, even about Martin Luther King!

ATLANTA - Jan. 20, 2014 - PRLog -- Martin Luther King day is celebrated around the world today, and for good reason. He’s remembered as a preacher, teacher, civil rights leader, husband and father, maybe even in that order?  Regardless of your religious belief or lack there of, political agenda, or role as caretaker - you have heard of Martin Luther King, Jr.

Have you ever wondered why black history documentaries feature really old people? It’s probably because they were there and are therefore considered experts.  Maybe older folks actually connect emotionally with times and climate of the civil rights movement.  Who knows?  Here’s what we do know:  Kids today are in search of their own dreams and know only what they’ve been taught about MLK.

Most kids today do remember MLK, and observe it as a school closing and a day off - parents too, especially those with paid leave.  No mail and most banks are closed across the country.

Kids, for the most part are involved in MLK festivities, like parades, marches, and mock demonstrations.  Even with their participation, few kids are ever asked the question, “Who is Martin Luther King, Jr.”? If you dare ask enough of them (kids), you’ll get a ton of pre-programmed answers - the ones they teach in school or through TV.  On the other hand, kids do say the darndest things, and some are down right hilarious!
