ELMO: OH! TODAY ON "SESAME STREET,"
WE'RE GONNA LEARN ALL ABOUT HOLIDAYS.
GABRIELLE: YEP. A HOLIDAY IS A SPECIAL DAY
THAT YOU CELEBRATE WITH YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY.
ELMO: YEAH. LIKE HALLOWEEN...
GABRIELLE: MM-HMM. VALENTINE'S DAY.
ELMO: EARTH DAY!
GABRIELLE: FOURTH OF JULY!
WOW! THAT'S A LOT OF HOLIDAYS, ELMO.
ELMO: OH, AND THERE'S ANOTHER HOLIDAY WE'RE GONNA LEARN
ALL ABOUT TODAY. GABRIELLE: MM-HMM.
BOTH: MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. DAY!
ELMO: COME CELEBRATE WITH US TODAY ON "SESAME STREET"!
KIDS: ♪ OOH, OOH, OOH ♪
♪ OOH, OOH, OOH ♪
♪ YEAH ♪
♪ SUNNY DAY SWEEPING THE CLOUDS AWAY ♪

♪ HOW TO GET TO SESAME STREET? ♪
GROVER: WHOOOA!
KIDS: ♪ LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA ♪
SESAME STREET!
ELMO: YEAH! TAMIR: WOAH, THIS IS COOL. CHARLIE: IT LOOKS GREAT.
ABBY: HEY. UM, WHAT ARE YOU TWO MAKING?
CHARLIE: WE'RE MAKING A PEACE TREE.
ELMO: AH. COOL. OH. OH, HI!
WELCOME TO SESAME STREET.
TAMIR: HI! ABBY: HI!
ELMO: OH, OH. IT'S MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. DAY,
AND CHARLIE AND TAMIR ARE MAKING A PEACH TREE!
TAMIR: HEH HEH. NO, NO. NOT A PEACH TREE.
A PEACE TREE.
CHARLIE: YEAH.
ELMO: AH. THAT'S VERY DIFFERENT. ABBY: YEAH.
ELMO: OH, OH, WELL, WHAT'S A PEACE TREE?
TAMIR: WELL, IT'S A SPECIAL TREE MADE FROM PAPER.
YEAH. WE'RE ALL DRAWING LEAVES THAT SHOW
HOW WE'LL DO OUR PART TO TREAT PEOPLE FAIRLY
AND WITH KINDNESS. ABBY & ELMO: AWW.
CHARLIE: WE MADE A PEACE TREE JUST LIKE THIS AT SCHOOL
FOR MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. DAY,
AND WE WANTED TO MAKE ONE HERE ON SESAME STREET, TOO.
ABBY: WOW! ELMO: OH! WELL, ELMO AND ABBY
LEARNED ABOUT MARTIN LUTHER KING JR.
IN PRESCHOOL, RIGHT, ABBY?
ABBY: THAT'S RIGHT. WE LEARNED THAT
MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. WAS A GREAT LEADER!
TAMIR: THAT'S RIGHT. HE STOOD UP AGAINST RACISM,
WHICH MEANS TREATING PEOPLE IN A HURTFUL WAY
BECAUSE OF HOW THEY LOOK.
CHARLIE: LIKE THE COLOR OF THEIR SKIN
OR WHERE THEY'RE FROM OR HOW THEY SPEAK.
TAMIR: YEAH. ELMO: YEAH, AND THAT'S WRONG!
ABBY: YEAH. REALLY, REALLY WRONG.
CHARLIE: YEAH. TAMIR: MM-HMM.
DR. KING WANTED TO MAKE THE WORLD
A MORE FAIR PLACE FOR ALL PEOPLE.
CHARLIE: DR. KING EVEN GAVE A FAMOUS SPEECH ABOUT IT.
TAMIR: MM-HMM.
CHARLIE: OH, TAMIR, DO YOU STILL HAVE
THAT VIDEO ON YOUR TABLET THAT WE COULD SHOW THEM?
TAMIR: OH, YEAH, YEAH. THERE'S A CLIP
THAT MY DAD SHOWED ME OF MARTIN LUTHER KING JR.
GIVING HIS "I HAVE A DREAM" SPEECH.
CHARLIE: WHEN HE SAYS, "DREAM," HE MEANS HE HAS A WISH.
TAMIR: YEAH. ELMO: OH.
MAN: DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING JR.
[CHEERING AND APPLAUSE]
DR. KING: I HAVE A DREAM.
[APPLAUSE]
THAT MY 4 LITTLE 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...
[CHEERING AND APPLAUSE]
TAMIR: YEAH. SO SINCE MARTIN LUTHER KING USED
PEACEFUL WAYS OF BRINGING PEOPLE TOGETHER
TO CREATE A FAIR AND KINDER WORLD,
WE THINK MAKING A PEACE TREE RIGHT HERE
WOULD BE A GOOD WAY TO CELEBRATE HIM.
CHARLIE: RIGHT! WE WANT EVERYONE ON SESAME STREET
TO ADD A LEAF THAT SHOWS WHAT THEY'RE PROMISING TO DO.
TAMIR: YEAH. HOW WE'RE ALL PROMISING TO CARRY ON HIS WISH,
NOT JUST ON MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. DAY
BUT EVERY DAY.
CHARLIE: TAMIR AND I PUT OUR LEAVES UP
ON THE PEACE TREE ALREADY.
ELMO: OH. TAMIR: MM-HMM.
MY LEAF SHOWS ME STANDING LIKE A SUPERHERO
BECAUSE I'M GOING TO HAVE THE COURAGE
TO STAND UP FOR MYSELF WHENEVER I'M TREATED UNFAIRLY
BECAUSE OF MY SKIN COLOR.
ELMO: OH, THAT'S NICE.
CHARLIE: MY PROMISE IS THAT I'M GOING TO INVITE
EVERYONE TO PLAY DURING RECESS
AND MAKE SURE THAT NO ONE IS LEFT OUT
BECAUSE OF THE WAY THEY LOOK.
ABBY: AW.
OH, I WANT TO MAKE A LEAF FOR THE PEACE TREE.
ELMO: OH, YEAH. ELMO, TOO!
TAMIR: OH, GREAT!
CHARLIE: HERE'S ONE FOR YOU, ABBY,
AND ONE FOR YOU, TOO, ELMO.
ABBY: OH, THANK YOU. ELMO: THANK YOU.
TAMIR: OK. SO JUST DRAW A PICTURE OF WHAT
YOU PROMISE TO DO TO CELEBRATE MARTIN LUTHER KING'S WISH
AND THEN BRING YOUR LEAVES BACK HERE BY THE END OF THE DAY!
ABBY: OK. WE WILL. ELMO: OK.
ABBY: HEH HEH. HEY, ELMO. DO YOU KNOW WHAT
YOU'RE GONNA DRAW ON YOUR LEAF?
ELMO: NOT YET. ELMO HAS TO THINK ABOUT IT.
ABBY: HMM. ME, TOO. ELMO: YEAH.
GABRIELLE: ROSITA, HAVE YOU SEEN THE BLUE MARKER?
ELMO: COME ON. ABBY: [GASPS] OK.
BYE! CHARLIE: BYE! TAMIR: BYE!
ELMO: OH, HI, GABRIELLE! ABBY: HI! HI, ROSITA!
GABRIELLE: HI, ABBY. ROSITA: HI, ABBY. HOLA, ELMO.
ELMO: OH. DID GABRIELLE DROP THIS MARKER?
GABRIELLE: OH, THANKS, ELMO.
OH. I WAS JUST LOOKING FOR THIS.
I NEED IT TO DRAW MY LEAF FOR THE PEACE TREE. ROSITA: HM-HMM.
ELMO: AH. COOL. WELL, ELMO AND ABBY
ARE STILL TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT WE'RE GONNA DRAW
ON OUR LEAVES.
ABBY: YEAH. GABRIELLE: WELL, WE READ
A BOOK IN SCHOOL ABOUT DR. KING
THAT HELPED US COME UP WITH OUR PROMISES.
ROSITA: YEAH. OH, IT'S CALLED
"MY DADDY, DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING JR."
SEE? GABRIELLE: YEP.
IT WAS WRITTEN BY DR. KING'S SON
MARTIN LUTHER KING III.
ELMO: WOW! ELMO DIDN'T KNOW THAT DR. KING WAS A DADDY!
ABBY: YEAH. WELL, WHAT'S IT ABOUT?
ELMO: YEAH. ROSITA: OH, WELL, IT'S ABOUT
MARTIN LUTHER KING III WHEN HE WAS A LITTLE KID.
GABRIELLE: YEP, AND WHAT IT WAS LIKE FOR HIM TO WATCH
HIS OWN DADDY AND OTHERS WORK TO MAKE SURE
EVERYONE IS TREATED THE WAY THEY WANT TO BE TREATED...
WITH RESPECT!
ROSITA: THAT'S WHAT HELPED ME TO COME UP
WITH MY LEAF.
IT'S A PICTURE OF MY FAMILY AND ME.
I'M SO PROUD THAT MY FAMILY CAME FROM MEXICO,
AND I PROMISE TO LEARN MORE ABOUT MY FRIEND GABRIELLE
AND HER FAMILY.
GABRIELLE: THANKS, ROSITA!
AND FOR MY PEACE TREE LEAF,
I PROMISE TO EXPRESS HOW PROUD I FEEL
ABOUT BEING ME BY... ♪ SINGING ♪
AND WRITING POEMS ABOUT WHO I AM.
ELMO: WOW! ROSITA: HEH HEH HEH.
ELMO: ROSITA AND GABRIELLE'S LEAVES ARE GREAT PROMISES!
ABBY: YEAH. YOU KNOW, I THINK I KNOW WHAT TO DRAW.
I JUST LOVE MAKING AMAZING ART WITH MY FRIENDS,
AND SO I PROMISE THAT I'M ALWAYS GONNA SHARE
WHATEVER I HAVE, LIKE MY PAPER AND MY CRAYONS.
GABRIELLE: THAT'S A GREAT PROMISE, ABBY. ELMO: YEAH!
ROSITA: YES, ABBY. WOULD YOU LIKE TO USE
SOME OF OUR MARKERS TO DRAW ON YOUR LEAF?
ABBY: OOH! YES, PLEASE! HA HA HA!
WHAT ABOUT YOU, ELMO?
ELMO: HMM. ELMO'S NOT SURE.
ELMO'S STILL THINKING OF WHAT TO DRAW. HMM.
[ELMO HUMMING]
ALAN: HI, ELMO. ELMO: OH! OH, HI, ALAN.
OH. HEY. IT'S MARTIN LUTHER KING JR.
YOU KNOW, ELMO LEARNED A LOT ABOUT HIM
IN PRESCHOOL TODAY.
ALAN: OH, YOU DID? ELMO: YEAH.
ALAN: LIKE WHAT? ELMO: OH. WELL, ELMO LEARNED
THAT DR. KING STOOD UP AGAINST RACISM.
ALAN: HM-HMM. ELMO: OH, AND HE WANTED EVERYBODY TO BE KIND
AND FAIR TO EACH OTHER.
OH, AND DID YOU KNOW HE WAS A DADDY, TOO?
ALAN: HEH HEH. YES. ALL OF THOSE THINGS
ARE VERY, VERY TRUE. ELMO: UH-HUH.
ALAN: MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. AND MANY, MANY OTHER PEOPLE
FROM THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT BROUGHT PEOPLE TOGETHER
IN A PEACEFUL WAY SO THAT WE COULD ALL
HAVE A PLACE LIKE SESAME STREET,
WHERE WE LIVE AND LEARN AND PLAY TOGETHER.
ELMO: WOW! YOU KNOW, ELMO REALLY NEEDS
TO THINK OF SOMETHING SPECIAL TO PUT ON HIS LEAF
FOR THE PEACE TREE.
ALAN: OH. YOU HAVEN'T DRAWN A PICTURE ON YOUR LEAF YET?
WELL, THINK ABOUT SOMETHING YOU ALREADY DO
TO HELP PEOPLE THAT YOU CAN KEEP DOING EVERY DAY.
SO FOR EXAMPLE... ELMO: YEAH?
ALAN: ON MY LEAF, I DREW A PEACE SIGN...
ELMO: OH! ALAN: AND I DREW IT TO STAND
FOR PEACE AND RESPECT BECAUSE EVERYBODY DESERVES
TO BE TREATED THE WAY THEY WANT TO BE TREATED.
ELMO: OH.
TAMIR: LAST CALL FOR LEAVES FOR THE PEACE TREE.
ELMO: OH! OH, NO!
TAMIR: OH. WHAT'S THE MATTER, ELMO?
ALAN: ELMO'S HAVING A LITTLE TROUBLE WITH HIS LEAF.
ELMO: YEAH. ELMO CAN'T THINK OF A WAY THAT
HE COULD SPREAD KINDNESS.
TAMIR: HMM. REALLY? ELMO: YEAH.
TAMIR: OH, ELMO, I KIND OF FIGURED YOU WERE GONNA DRAW
A HEART ON YOUR LEAF.
ELMO: A HEART? TAMIR: YEAH.
WELL, I MEAN, YOU KNOW, YOU'RE THE KINDEST MONSTER
I KNOW.
ELMO: AW. WELL, THANKS, TAMIR.
OH. ELMO LOVES BEING KIND TO OTHERS.
TAMIR: YEAH. YOU'RE KIND TO EVERYONE,
AND WHEN YOU DO KIND THINGS,
IT MAKES YOUR HEART FEEL GOOD.
ALAN: THAT SOUNDS JUST LIKE YOU, ELMO.
TAMIR: YEAH. BEING KIND AND FAIR TO EVERYONE
IS PART OF WHAT DR. KING WISHED FOR.
ELMO: AH. WELL, ELMO'S GOT SOME DRAWING TO DO!
TAMIR: GREAT. BRING YOUR LEAF BACK TO THE PEACE TREE
WHEN YOU'RE FINISHED, OK?
ELMO: OK. ALAN: ALL RIGHT.
I'LL BRING MINE NOW. TAMIR: OK. GREAT.
ELMO: OH, OH, OH, ALAN. ALAN: UH-HUH?
ELMO: CAN ELMO PLEASE BORROW A CRAYON?
THANK YOU! ALAN: SURE!
DRAW YOUR HEART OUT!
ELMO: ELMO WILL! HA HA HA!
LET'S SEE. A HEART, A HEART.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
