Why does Martin Luther King,Jr deserve to have a holiday named after him?

I think he deserve a holiday because if it wasnt for him we would still be going through racism and segregation. He made it to where blacks and whites finally get alone, and for that he deserve a holiday named after him!

What kind of community service have you volunteered to do? How did it help someone else? How did it make you feel? Would you do it again?

Me and my classmates have helped tutor our Kindergarten class. They are very bright young children. They learn very quick even though they are easily distracted. There are advantages and disadvantages but overall I enjoyed helping them.

Discuss court-ordered community service. Why would a court order that? What are the advantages and disadvantages?

Really I dont know but I'm thinking they do that to give you another chance! Some stuff dont be worth going to jail over so they'll give you a chance and give you community service. There are a couple disadvantages like you'll have to do so many hours, you'll have to find someone in your community to sign off on it for you, you'll have to get up early and etc. A couple advantages is you wont go to jail, it's better than jail, and it may be easy to some people.

What kinds of organizations encourage young people to engage in community service? What is required of the young people and what are the rewards?

To be honest there isnt many of them in my community, the only one i attend was TREND & JJK! During these organizations we go on field trips, have parties and etc. People also tutor you if you need it! You play games, sports, eat snacks and etc

What type of college do you want to attend?

Seriously, I wasn't even considering going to college fresh out of high school, maybe when I got to the Air Force. If I was considering going to college I would go to TSU (Tennessee State University). I chose that college because I can get away from home and I'm not that far from home. My friends and family will only be 4 hours away. TSU offer alot but you have to be willing to strive for it.
