Michigan Law Firm Publishes Martin Luther King, Jr. Day Timeline Infographic
Southfield, Michigan (PRWEB) January 12, 2016 -- Buckfire & Buckfire, P.C., a Michigan personal injury law firm, has published the first infographic depicting the historical timeline of the Martin Luther King Jr. National Holiday. The idea of honoring Dr. King’s legacy with a national holiday was not met with universal acceptance. It was not until the year 2000, seventeen years after the official holiday bill was signed into law, that every state in the union finally acknowledged and observed the day.
Today, more than ever, the message of Dr. King resonates loudly with new generations in this country. Schools use the holiday to teach import lessons to students about civil liberties, human rights, and tolerance. Other nations now also honor the holiday.
The law firm of Buckfire & Buckfire, P.C. created this infographic because of its dedication to diversity. The firm awards annual diversity scholarships to both medical school and law school students who exemplify the ideas and teachings of Martin Luther King Jr. in their personal and educational history. The scholarships have helped many outstanding students afford the cost of attending professional school across the United States.
Buckfire & Buckfire, P.C. is a six attorney law firm in Southfield, Michigan. We encourage you to share this infographic with friends, family, colleagues, and students. Additionally, this infographic may be shared and embedded on websites, blogs, social media and other internet resources. Feel free to print and distribute the infographic to students and colleagues.
