The theme for Bates' 2020 observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day is “From the Ground Up: Inequity, Bias, Privilege, Structure, Death.” Activities include three sessions of concurrent workshops: This first session includes workshops on Mahatma Gandhi's influence on King and the use of picture books to address racial issues with children, as well as a screening of I Am Not Your Negro, a film about James Baldwin (pictured, at center).
