Celebrate Martin Luther King Jr. with the Gonzaga Community
Monday, January 20, we celebrate the birthday of Martin Luther King, Jr. and honor his enduring legacy. MLK Day calls on us to reflect on Dr. King’s fight for racial equality and social justice, and to acknowledge the ongoing struggle for a more just and equitable society.
We are encouraged to examine our own biases and engage in meaningful action. Whether through community service, education, or advocacy, we can value Dr. King's memory by working towards a world where his dream of a beloved community becomes a reality for all.
