Justice is socially constructed, man-made, and natural. However, for Dr. King, justice is ontological, divine, and tension oriented. This presentation discusses Dr. King's April 16, 1963, Letter written when he was arrested and jailed during a civil rights protest in Birmingham. It is an analysis of some of the arguments Dr. King advanced that were central to the civil rights movement and the passing of the 1964 Civil Rights Act in the United States. This presentation explores the letter’s relevance considering its fundamental goal: the need for social change in the United States. However, it is essential to note that Dr. King’s assertion of social change in this Letter was defined within what he considers: “the Gospel of Freedom.” This presentation explores Dr. King’s approach to asserting the claims of the “Gospel of Freedom” in relation to the 21st-century assertion for social change.

A Tribute to Dr. Coretta Scott King
Facilitated by Dr. Ayshia Mackie-Stephensen
Women Civil Rights activists were critical to the movement and pushed MLK’s dream forward. Dr. Coretta Scott King, in particular, was a “real soldier” (MLK 1968). The speeches she delivered, and the crucial time in which she delivered those speeches, cemented the King family's legacy and carried the fight for justice. This choreopoem of speeches, music, poetry and archival footage honors her campaign for global peace and for racial and social justice. This performance is in collaboration with Xavier University of Louisiana students. Join us to learn more about Dr. Coretta Scott King and to celebrate her incredible legacy!
