February
is the second month, and has 28 days, except on Leap Years
when it has 29 (2000, 2004, 2008, 2012). Named after the Roman
god Februus.
The big holidays held in February are Groundhog's day (2nd),
St. Valentine's Day (14th) and President's day (3rd Monday).
There were orginially four holidays, but they merged George
Washington's and Abraham Lincoln's birthdays together for
for one presidential holiday.
February is also Black History Month, often used to celebrate
the accomplishments of George Washington Carver and Martin
Luther King, Jr.
"I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and
live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these
truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal."
I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia the
sons of former slaves and the sons of former slaveowners will
be able to sit down together at a table of brotherhood. I have
a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a desert
state, sweltering with the heat of injustice and oppression,
will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice. I
have a dream that my four children will one day live in a nation
where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but
by the content of their character. I have a dream today."
-Dr. Martin Luthor King, Delivered on the steps at the Lincoln
Memorial in Washington D.C. on August 28, 1963 |
