PARLOR TALK: DEATH OF A KING

  • Urban Consulate 4735 Cass Avenue Detroit, MI, 48201 United States (map)

Join us in Detroit with Jeffrey Nolish, Pastor Barry Randolph & Orlando Bailey to reflect on Dr. King's life on the 50th anniversary of his death. 

Fifty years ago—on April 4, 1968 at approximately 6:01pm CT—our nation’s greatest peacemaker was snatched by a sniper’s bullet at the Lorraine Motel in Memphis. That shot would reverberate throughout the world. On April 4, 2018, the world will remember Dr. King's legacy with a 50th anniversary commemoration & moment of silence led by the National Civil Rights Museum in Memphis. Follow the #MLK50 conversations here.
