Join us in celebrating Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s birthday with an event dedicated to the ways in which social and civil rights movements can be expressed, pursued, and propelled through the arts and performance.

Presented as part of the Apollo Theater’s Uptown Hall series, WNYC brings its annual Martin Luther King Jr. celebration uptown. WNYC’s Brian Lehrer and MSNBC’s Melissa Harris-Perry will guide us through the past half-century and explore the significant moments leading to today’s democratic landscape in America.
