What does it mean to be a MLK Scholar?
What being an MLK scholar means to me means carrying out and protecting a legacy that some often try to erase. Using my voice as a student to speak up for injustices and educate others is important to me as we as scholars represent Martin Luther King’s and other civil rights leaders' goals to make sure that minorities are treated fairly and equally.
