This year’s theme for the march, “Together We Can Be THE Dream,” was pitched by Shaunda Hopkins Lohse, who submitted her entry into the contest the commission hosted in the fall.
Marchers will step off at 10 a.m. at Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Academy, at 3501 Martin Luther King Drive and head straight down to Pittman-Sullivan Park, where the celebration will officially go until 3 p.m.
The 8th annual Martin Luther King Jr. citywide art contest had over 200 submissions, the largest number the commission had ever had, Robinson said. Success! You're on the list. “My expectations are that if the weather is going to be like this, we’re gonna have over 400,000 people marching,” he said. “I could feel [Martin Luther King Jr.], but I certainly can feel the presence of my forefathers and foremothers that participated in the sacrifice,” Robinson said.
