New York University announces the theme for its 5th Annual Martin Luther King, Jr. Celebration Week which will be held from January 18-23, 2010: “Who Will you Inspire To Dream?” On February 10, 1961, the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. delivered a speech on the campus of New York University that advocated for civil rights and championed nonviolent protest for social change. For the fifth-consecutive year, the University will commemorate Dr. King’s visit and his legacy by hosting a weeklong schedule of special events and programs. This year’s theme is intended to remind us of the spirit of Dr. King’s message as well as to encourage our community to reflect on his message and how it reverberates today. Full Press Release.
MLK Week will also feature programs, symposia and film screenings offered by NYU, student organizations, academic departments, and administrative units. Last year over 65 programs were offered with attendance exceeding 2,700 participants.
