"Conscience for Change: Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Canada's Massey Lectures, 1967"
In the year of Confederation, and only months before his assassination, Dr. King's credo of non-violence and his central role in the Civil Rights struggle so inspired Canadians that he was invited to deliver the Massey Lectures.
Dr. Karolyn Smardz Frost, Harrison McCain Visiting Professor in History & Classics, will present the central themes of his five lectures, and examine the historical context in which they were delivered.
This session is presented by the Race Relations & Anti-Discrimination Committee of the Municipality of The County of Kings in partnership with Acadia University.
