TUPELO • Committee for King (CFK) has honored Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s legacy in the City of Tupelo since 1986. When it was time to celebrate and organize 2021’s celebration, CFK chair Shawn Brevard wondered if there has ever been a more important year to honor the good King did and the inspiration he left behind. “He was a galvanizing force,” Brevard said of the U.S. Civil Rights leader. “We recognize through the divisive politics, the pandemic, the inequitable effect of COVID on minorities, people of color … (and) with everything that’s going on in the world, I think (the work that we do) is more important than ever.”
