To help us celebrate and embrace this year’s theme, "The Urgency of Now - A Time for Truth and Action," we will be joined by the youngest daughter of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Dr. Bernice A. King, for an intimate fireside chat led by author and scholar Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor. Dr. King will offer personal reflections on her father’s legacy and her decades of experience as a ​global thought leader, peace advocate, and CEO of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Center for Nonviolent Social Change (The King Center). Following the conversation, there will be a book signing. The first 25 attendees in line will receive a complimentary book from Dr. King. 

Advanced registration to attend the talk is requested. All are welcome.
