25th Annual Brooklyn Tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

BAM, Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz, and Medgar Evers College of The City University of New York present New York City's largest public celebration in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

This year, BAM welcomes keynote speaker Walter Mosley, novelist and social commentator; musical performances by the Persuasions and The Reverend Timothy Wright; and Memorial Choir of the Grace Tabernacle Christian Center C.O.G.I.C.

Following the event in the Opera House, BAM Rose Cinemas will present a free screening of Neshoba: The Price of Freedom, an award winning documentary about a Mississippi town still divided about the meaning of justice, 40 years after the murders of three civil rights workers.
