I think the name should stay because it not only honours the man who died for the cause, but it reminds people about the fight that had to take place to even have the issues recognized.

MLK was the personification of the civil rights movement. Without his organization's efforts, which were much less divisive than the more radical elements like the Black Panthers, civil rights wouldn't have taken on that strong mainstream appeal. He definitely deserves a holiday for his birthday.

I got no problem with this. The 60's were a time when a Lot of great people really stepped up to the plate. They should all be recognized for their Efforts. King was a great man, but he wasn't the only Player in the game.

I've got no problem with this. In addition to celebrating the life of Martin Luther King, Jr., celebrating others who have fought for Civil Rights is a noble idea.

I don't have an issue with the holiday being named after Martin Luther King, Jr. but Civil Rights Day is a much more accurate name for what I feel the holiday should symbolize. It's not just about King's work but all the people that fought to make a difference.
