WALK WITH US
 
Dear Friend,

In the spirit of service and in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., we'll be joining our neighbors for the 9th Annual MLK Parade in Ward 8 on January 19.

This year, the theme is "Looking Back, Moving Forward ... Together" — a recognition of the Civil Rights leaders of the past and an affirmation to the momentum and breadth of Civil Rights organizing today.

We're putting together an LGBTQ contingent to walk with the many community members who'll turn out to celebrate progress, honor Dr. King, and walk for a more peaceful future.

We'll be meeting in front of the Congress Heights Metro Station on January 19th at 11:30am. From there, we'll walk over to the parade line at St. Elizabeth’s main gate, 2700 Martin Luther King, Ave. SE. The parade will end at Leckie Elementary School: 4201 Martin Luther King, Jr. Ave. SW.

Will you walk with us? If you can, please RSVP here. We'll need an accurate headcount so that we can give out posters and banners. Please invite your friends and ask them to RSVP, too.

If you have any questions, concerns, or accessibility needs, please get in touch with Dominique here at the Task Force; her e-mail address is: dchamely@thetaskforce.org.

In solidarity,

Rev. Darlene Nipper, Deputy Executive Director
National LGBTQ Task Force
