The University of Chicago's 25th annual MLK Celebration features a keynote address by Reverend Jesse L. Jackson Sr., founder and president of the Rainbow PUSH Coalition. The program also includes performances by the Chicago Children's Choir and a conversation with special guest Ernest G. Green, member of the “Little Rock Nine,” and his son Adam P. Green, Associate Professor of American History and the College. This year's theme, "What does justice look like?" was developed by the Black Students Association at the Lab School. Honoring the life and legacy of Dr. King, Jackson and Green reflect on the promise of justice and the role that each of us play in making it a reality. ➡ Subscribe: http://bit.ly/UCHICAGOytSubscribe About #UChicago: Since its founding in 1890, the University of Chicago has been a destination for rigorous inquiry and field-defining research.
