In the USA, today is an observed holiday known as Martin Luther King Day. For years I have celebrated this holiday by participating in programs, parades and simply honoring the gentleman that paved the way for all people in the great U.S.A. It isn’t a day of rest for me but a day of remembrance and appreciation. While Clumps of Mascara is a beauty blog, I love incorporating a little history too.
Y’all know I’m a nerd.

Knowledge is beauty!
