The National Civil Rights Museum presented a virtual commemoration in honor of Dr. King’s life and legacy on the 53rd anniversary of his death. 

Each year the Museum commemorates the tragic event that occurred on the balcony of the Lorraine Motel in 1968. This year’s event will feature A Conversation with Rev. James Lawson, a key King ally and stalwart of nonviolent philosophy who trained a number of activists on civil disobedience.
