Background:
|
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was an activist committed to peace, justice, and equality. Dr. King’s essential thoughts on nonviolence, social policy, integration, black nationalism, the ethics of love and hope, and his many testimonies have resonated over the past 39 years through the voices of our youth. “Working Toward a World of Peace”, this year’s theme, laid the groundwork for our students to prepare their notable artwork, creative writings and eloquent speeches, which had them reflect and write about how it related to themselves or others in their families, schools, neighborhoods and the world.
Congratulations to all winners of this year's Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Art, Speech, and Writing Contests. This evening, MPS students will be presenting their 2022-2023 award-winning Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. (MLK) speeches.
