Each year on the third Monday in January Americans across the country come together to observe and commemorate the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., clergyman, civil rights leader, and nonviolent activist. And it is very important that we here in Brookline take a moment to honor his teachings and remember his inspiring words. Although he died more than 40 years ago, his clear and courageous positions on poverty, war, education, and freedom still ring true. How do we as individuals and as a town measure up? How can we challenge ourselves to help make our country and our town a better place? How do we keep the promise of his most famous words? Join us to commemorate Dr. King with singing, jazz, readings, and testimony from the community.
