Title

Presentation of annual Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day Awards by the Brookings Human Rights Commission.

 

Body

In celebration of Dr. King’s birthday, the Brookings Human Rights Commission sponsored a poster contest for intermediate school students and an essay contest for middle school and high school students to help students reflect on Dr. King’s ideas and their impact on the community.  This year’s theme for the poster contest was "In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.”

 

Mayor Keith Corbett will present the winners with their awards.  All poster entries will be on display at the Brookings Public Library through February 7th, on the City of Brookings website, and the City’s Government Channel (Mediacom and Swiftel Channel 9).
