On November 2, 1983, President Ronald Reagan signed the King Holiday Bill into law, designating the third Monday in January a federal holiday in observance of civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. The legislation to recognize Martin Luther King Jr. Day was first introduced just four days after his assassination on April 4, 1968. Still, it would take 15 years of persistence by civil rights activists for the holiday to be approved by the federal government and an additional 17 years for it to be recognized in all 50 states. Today, it is the only federal holiday designated as a national day of service to encourage all Americans to volunteer and improve their communities.

Joshua knocked out Paul in Round 6 with a monstrous right hand Friday night at the Kaseya Center in Miami. In doing so, Joshua appeared to also break the YouTuber-turned-boxer’s jaw.
Many predicted the eight-round Netflix heavyweight boxing match wouldn’t go past the first couple of rounds, but it was a frustrating night for Joshua (29-4, 26 KOs) as Paul employed plenty of lateral movement in the fight, refusing to engage much with the Brit. Paul impressively made Joshua (12-2, 7 KOs) miss with a handful of rights early in the contest and had success with his jab.
“Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta” star and rapper Erica Banks was arrested on drug distribution charges after being pulled over in a stolen car, where police found ecstasy pills and multiple bags of marijuana!
