Keeping Dr. King’s Legacy Alive in Utah
When it comes to celebrating Martin Luther King Jr. Day and the Reverend’s legacy at large, Salt Lake City isn’t always the first place that comes to mind. In taking a closer look, there are numerous ways to celebrate this historic holiday in Salt Lake on January 16 and beyond. Through Utah’s own Martin Luther King Jr. Human Rights Commission, an organization that works year-round to promote diversity, equity, and human rights in Utah, the city comes together for several momentous celebrations. These celebrations include educating residents on Dr. King’s mission, curating a one-of-a-kind MLK Jr. license plate, and getting the Utah Jazz involved with Utah’s youth.
