Students’ images, words celebrate Dr. King’s legacy of social justice
Back in 2006, Warner Norcross + Judd LLP reached out to Grand Rapids sixth graders, asking them to take part in a contest about what the words of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. meant to them.
The firm asked the students to write an essay. The hope was to encourage students to become good writers, to think critically about Dr. King’s legacy and to translate those words into action within their schools or the larger community.
Grand prize winner: Alone, by artist Trinity Talbert
Now in its 16
th year, the contest features a diverse and dynamic new format to honor the civil rights icon’s legacy of peace and justice.
