On January 18, 2021, we honor the life and work of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Also, on this National Day of Service, we realize the importance of working together, hand in hand, to make lives better in our communities, our country, and around the world.
In this effort, middle and high school students have created The Quest for Truth and Justice exhibition. For this exhibit, students were encouraged to reflect upon King's 1964 acceptance speech, "The Quest for Peace and Justice," as he received the Nobel Peace Prize for his nonviolent resistance to racial prejudice in America. Art is a powerful tool, and in the hands of these students, it expresses, educates, and reveals our shared struggles, hopes, and dreams.
