Hundreds of supporters gathered on the steps of Kingsbury Hall on January 16 after participating in a rally and march to commemorate Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s legacy. MLK Week has become a platform to engage students, faculty, staff, and community members in critical conversations around contemporary civil rights issues and race in America. This year’s celebration also included a musical performance by Taylor Mac, a keynote address from Ta-Nehisi Coates, a panel discussion on systemic racism, and a day of service at various locations throughout the Salt Lake Valley.
