Updated with more Inaugural resources: Jan. 22, 2013 Though
President Obama actually took the oath of office on Jan. 20,
public inaugural celebrations take place on Jan. 21, the same

each. Martin Luther King Day The slide show of historic Times

what is depicted, why and who. Below, more from The Learning
Network about Martin Luther King, Jr. and the civil rights
movement — each with links to historic Times articles, lesson
plans, crosswords, Student Opinion questions and more: -
