If you can’t make it to the March on Washington (in Olympia) to celebrate Martin Luther King, Jr. Day this January 18, 2010, come down to MLK Seattle at Garfield High School.  The 28th annual region-wide celebration includes:

• Workshops from 9:30am-11:00am
• Rally at 11:00am
• March from Garfield High School to the Federal Building on 2nd Avenue at 12 noon
• Immediately after the March, refreshments will be served at Garfield’s lunchroom, free to all participants!

Organizers say that:

Seattle has one of the largest annual Martin Luther King Day celebrations in the U.S. We honor Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., for his work toward racial equality and economic justice for all people, for his commitment to nonviolence, and for his stand against war and militarism.”
