Please remember when Dr. King was murdered in Memphis 1968, he was there in support of sanitation workers on strike. MLK fought just as hard for workers rights as he did for civil rights. The ability to sit in a diner is significant, but so isn't being able to afford a burger.

For those who've followed my reporting on firefighters and cancer risk, I received this email from 3M regarding the materials on firefighter gear. It's raising lots of questions from firefighters and people here in Washington.

We had a report yesterday of kids skating on Buckmaster Pond. As you can see there is still open water. None of the ponds in town are safe for skating!

#DYK: Nearly half of Americans believe it’s safer to sleep with the door closed in the event of a fire? But only 26% actually do. Watch this real-life example from @ffxfirerescue of how a closed door can save lives. #CloseBeforeYouDoze #FirePreventionWeek youtu.be/MpNqcUyLTL4

A closed door keeps temperatures down and provides more oxygen to breathe during a fire. #closebeforeyoudoze
