SUMMARY:Martin Luther King Jr. Convocation
DESCRIPTION:For more than 40 years\, UC Santa Cruz’s annual Martin Luther King Jr. Convocation has honored Dr. King’s legacy of freedom\, equity\, and human dignity. In its early years\, the convocation hosted foundational movement figures and icons of the Civil Rights Era. As systemic inequities have evolved\, so too has the scope of our speakers—welcoming landmark scholars\, artists\, journalists\, and organizers over the decades. Today\, the Office for Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion continues this tradition by inviting leaders who apply an equity lens across diverse\, interdisciplinary fields\, reflecting how civil rights advocacy intersects with every facet of daily life. \nThe 43rd annual MLK Convocation will take place on Tuesday\, January 26\, 2027  at the UC Santa Cruz Music Recital Hall. \nFree and open to the public.
