Please join us as we commemorate the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and the Sesquicentennial of the Emancipation Proclamation throughout January and February 2013. One of the key objectives of this commemoration is to draw upon the Emancipation Proclamation and its legacy, along with the life work of Dr. King, and to reflect on the meaning of freedom today. The Sesquicentennial is an appropriate moment to reflect on the progress and the work that remains in combating involuntary servitude, and fulfilling the promise of freedom throughout the global community.
