The Rally Planning committee warmly invites you to join us on Monday, January 19, 2026, for the 31st Annual Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Youth Rally & March, a nationally recognized experience dedicated to honoring the legacy, vision, and service of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Walk Together toward a beloved community he and others envisioned. This powerful annual gathering is planned and facilitated by elementary, middle, and high school scholars, showcasing scholar leadership and creativity, and inspiring and encouraging Community-centered inspiration and a call to action: Walk Together – NOW toward joy, hope, and community.
The Rally Planning committee efforts are fueled by its purpose, promotion of the life and dreams of the late Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and Dr. Leola Bullock through positive youth action.” This engagement calls us to learn, reflect, and act together.
As we unite across generations, we aim to honor what Rev. Dr. King described in his 1964 Nobel Peace Prize speech as “the audacity to believe in dignity, equality, and freedom.”
Families, educators, faith communities, civic leaders, youth organizations, and neighbors near and far are encouraged to attend in-person or virtually.
