If we are going to call George Washington's birthday "Presidents' Day", then it is only appropriate that we refer to the January 15 holiday commemerating MLK as "Activists' Day"!

I do not refer to MLK at all. IMO revisionists and assasination have created a silk purse from a sow's ear.

In time Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton may well be as Mohammed is to the muslims.

While I do not begrudge others their hero's, I don't do Islam.

The media calls it "President's Day", but the holiday established by Congress (on the books) is still Washington's Birthday.

That's your dot-gov site authority.
There is no "President's Day".
