Martin Luther King Jr. Day Observance

Presented virtually in 2021, Martin Luther King Jr. Day events will be available as livestreamed, podcast, and Zoom gatherings. A link for each program follows individual event descriptions.

MLK Day at Bates is an intense, community-wide opportunity to discuss, teach, and reflect on King’s legacy. It is a time to examine contemporary human issues through the lens of King’s work and ideas, broadly defined. It is a day of thought, reflection, and aspiration for the entire community.
