The 32nd annual Human Relations Commission tribute to Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. will be held virtually this year on Monday, Jan. 18, at 7 p.m.
This year’s program will feature keynote speaker Jennifer McCary, who is the chief diversity and belonging officer at Bowling Green State University. Her talk will be titled “Perhaps it is Time.”
The HRC will also present the Drum Major for Peace Award to Ana C. Brown. The Drum Major for Peace Award is given to a citizen of BG who has made significant efforts to further the betterment of human relations by actively promoting justice, peace, and respect, and who exemplifies Dr. King’s character and values of courage, truth, compassion, dignity, humility, and service.
A Negro spiritual will be performed by Anthony King, and musical selections by operatic singer Shawn Mathey will be offered. Piano music will be provided by Kevin McGill, director of music at St. Mark’s Lutheran Church.
