�PROGRAM
Welcome ....... . ....... . ......... . .. . ... . .Tammy Reynolds
Director, Minority Affairs/Cultural Center

Martin Luther King Jr. - black leader - was a man
for all people. The killers of the dream could end
his mortal existence with a single bullet, but not all
the bullets in all the arsenals can effect his death.
We will not have to search for him. Listen/or him
in the protests of the poor -- black and white. Look
for him in the places where social evils are nonviolently resisted by proud, brave people. Listen for
him in the ever-increasing chorus of committed
individuals. Remember him as a man who tried to
be "a drum major for justice, a drum major for
peace, a drum major for righteousness. " Remember him as a man who refused to lose faith in the
ultimate redemption of mankind.
