"Dr. King captured the attention of our nation during the Civil Rights Movement 60 years ago,” said Akron Mayor Dan Horrigan. “May we take pause on this day to remember Dr. King’s life and legacy and let us continuously recommit ourselves to the difficult but essential work of calling out injustice wherever it persists just as he did. We all have responsibility to be an active part of the solution, especially those of us who carry the most privilege."
