Watch Live: San Antonio virtual MLK March will feel like the real thing
FacebookTwitterEmail
Since he was in elementary school, Ya’Ke Smith has marched with thousands of fellow San Antonians every January to honor the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Now because of the pandemic, the 40-year-old filmmaker is taking that experience and its message off the streets and onto televisions and touchscreens.
His 90-minute film “Dream: Rising Up for Justice” will serve as the virtual version of the 2021 Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. commemorative march.
It will air at 10 a.m. Monday on WOAI-TV, KABB-TV and TVSA. It also will stream on the Facebook pages of the city of San Antonio (@cosagov) and the San Antonio Martin Luther King Jr. Commission (@mlkcommission).

As soon as the schools closed for the latest lockdown there was a huge focus on homeschooling and the various ways parents can help prevent their children falling behind academically.
Yet little has been said about the fact there are entire weekends and evenings where you’ll need to find ways to keep your kids entertained when the usual soft plays, swimming pools, zoos, craft centres and other go-tos are closed. What’s more, this latest lockdown comes during the cold winter months. Making outdoor walks and parks less appealing.

This is not to mention that the upheaval may well be impacting the mental health of children, so having downtime, and being given time to relax and play, is vitally important.
