2023 Martin Luther King Jr. Campus Commemoration

The Office for Institutional Equity and Diversity is proud to once again invite the community to share in the celebration at the annual Martin Luther King, Jr. Campus Commemoration at NC State. Our theme this year is Renaissance: An awakening of radical love, community appreciation, and ancestral gratitude. This year, we honor King’s legacy through a cultural arts lens with an awakening of radical love, a re-building of community, and centering ancestral gratitude. We also recognize a renaissance in the the perseverance of art, literature, and culture through a period of darkness. We hope you will join the campus community as we learn, remember and celebrate the resilience and longevity of Dr. King’s movement.
