This free program will begin at 1:00 PM via digital streaming and highlight the youth in our community who interpreted Dr. King’s works through art, speech, and writing contests. Students from Milwaukee, Wauwatosa, and West Bend school districts participated in this year’s contests.
The theme for this year’s program is “Keep Moving Forward,” from Dr. King’s address “Keep Moving from This Mountain,” given at Spelman College on April 10, 1960. Several local performing arts organizations, including the United Indians of Milwaukee Youth Dancers, Hmong American Friendship Association, Water Street Dance, Christopher Gilbert, and B-Free, will also be highlighted in this year’s event as they salute Dr. King’s legacy through music, dance, and song.
