The 2025 MLK Day March and Program
The Martin Luther King Jr. Coalition of Cincinnati is proud to announce its free upcoming, 50th anniversary program and march, in honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Day. This year’s theme is “Jubilee for MLK’s Beloved Community" and draws from Dr. King's 1960 Freedom Jubilee speech in Pittsburgh, where he celebrated the spirit of renewal and the ongoing fight for equality. The MLK Coalition is excited to include a segment for children, "Land of Superheroes" presented by the Bootsy Collins Foundation Greater Cincinnati to celebrate the legacy of Dr. King through music and creative expression.
As always, the event will feature inspiring music by the MLK Chorale, Baba Charles and the Samba Band, and new this year, the pre-program will include a group of Steppers. The keynote address will be by Dr. Hasan Kwame Jeffries, Professor of History, Ohio State University, whose words will motivate us all to continue the essential work of advancing equity, justice, and freedom.
