New look for services this year, but Metro Detroiters committed to honoring King s legacy
Southfield When it comes to honoring Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Neely Allen believes it s important to not hang with her friends but to take the opportunity to stand for justice.
So on this brisk Monday morning, the 16-year-old sat in the back seat of a vehicle driven by her mom, waiting to give thanks for King s ultimate sacrifice for civil rights for Black Americans on a national holiday in his honor. It s a really big yearly reminder to keep fighting and there s a lot of work that we have to do, said Allen. Usually my friends will want to hang out because we don t have school but I have to remind them that I have obligations.
