EDWARDSVILLE The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s sentiments and words of “struggle” to affect positive, moral change are truer today than ever before, agreed several speakers at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville’s 38th annual Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Celebration on Tuesday hosted by SIUE’s Center for Student Diversity and Inclusion (CSDI).
About 100 people participated in the celebration via Zoom and Facebook Live. It featured Timothy E. Lewis, PhD, assistant professor in the SIUE College of Arts and Sciences’ Department of Political Science, as the guest speaker, with Southern Illinois University (SIU) System President Dan Mahony, PhD, providing the welcome.
