On this day we remember The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and what we can all learn from him during these difficult times.
Please join the Medford Human Rights Commission for the 'Medford Honors MLK' event on January 18th at 1 PM. See the registration link below.Join us for Medford Honors MLK!
We will explore discussion of Dr. Martin Luther King and the ways in which he engaged community, fought for racial equity, and worked to build Black political and economic capital. We are thrilled to bring you Medford activists and leaders such as Crystal Chandler, Terry E. Carter, David Harris, Dr Edouard-Vincent and many others, who will guide us in conversation for what promises to be a wonderful day of dialogue.
