SUMMARY:57th MLK Convocation
DESCRIPTION:Deciding that she would rather celebrate his birth and achievements rather than focus on his death\, Margaret Walker sponsored one of the first birthday convocations for Dr. Martin Luther King\, Jr.\, on January 12\, 1969\, at Jackson State University.\n\n\n\nAs part of Dr. Alexander’s legacy\, the Margaret Walker Center at Jackson State University continues this annual event. Their 57th convocation will take place on January 17th\, 2025\, in the Rose McCoy Auditorium at JSU. The keynote speaker will be civil rights activist\, scholar\, and author Dr. Charles Payne.\n\n\n\nOur For My People Awards Luncheon will follow at noon in the Student Center Ballroom A. Tickets to purchase a meal will be available soon. We are proud this year to honor Dr. Charles Payne\, Rev. Dr. CJ Rhodes\, and Attorney Carroll Rhodes with For My People Awards.
