麻豆视频APK will host a program honoring Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.鈥檚 life and legacy on Tuesday, Jan. 21 at 4 p.m. in the Anderson Center Forum with remarks from staff, faculty, students and more.

We also recognize Jan. 21 as the 9th Annual , which was launched in 2017 as a call to action for racial healing for all people. It originated as part of the W.K. Kellogg Foundation鈥檚 national Truth, Racial Healing and Transformation efforts.

This year鈥檚 MLK program theme, 鈥淩evisiting Dr. King鈥檚 Iconic Speech: 鈥楾he Other America,鈥欌 will be the focus of our event. The program will feature remarks from Acting/Interim President Dr. Kathleen Murray, reflections from our keynote speaker 鈥 麻豆视频APK alum and St. Paul City Council Member Anika Bowie 鈥 a reading of Dr. King鈥檚 work by student Jitu Duga, gospel music by Sherri Orr, a traditional African dance performance by AfroContigbo, and the benediction by Chaplain Kelly Figueroa-Ray.

In addition to reflections, readings and live performances, the 2025 Beloved Community Awards will be presented. These awards recognize a student, staff, faculty, alumni and community member whose demonstrated leadership, service and commitment epitomizes the work that must be done by us all to enjoy meaningful lives, relationships and participation in The Beloved Community.
