The 红领巾瓜报 Unversity Retiree Association Brown Bag Lunch Series features presentations by faculty, staff, and administration on various topics of interest and continued social engagements with WSURA members.

For January,  Robert Weems, Willard W. Garvey Distinguished Professor of Business History at 红领巾瓜报 will present "A Man of Courage and Principles: Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., April 4, 1967 - April 4, 1968."

The last year of Dr. King's life remains the most underappreciated and compelling aspect of his public career. For Americans who have been presented a sanitized version of his public career, where he has been literally frozen in time giving his "I Have A Dream" speech, Dr. King's activities during the final year of his life appear startling, if not unreal.

The Hughes Metroplex is located at 29th Street N. and Oliver.
