2021 Annual MLK Birthday Celebration

The Radical King and the Quest to Change America

Free event with suggested contributions $5-20

Today, Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. is celebrated for his ‘dream’ of a just America, but by the end of his career King was calling for a “radical reconstruction” of the United States. What compelled the transformation of King’s ideas and what do they tell us about our society today? For the 2021 Annual MLK Birthday Celebration, Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor will engage these questions in hopes of unlocking the ideas and strategies necessary to enact effective and lasting change in the United States. A Q&A session will follow the lecture, moderated by Brandon Mack, community activist and lead organizer for Black Lives Matter: Houston.
