Celebrating the Martin Luther King, Jr. Center for Nonviolent Social Change’s 55th Anniversary Through Digital Transformation of its Rich Archive and Ongoing Work to Educate

February 9, 11:05 AM EST

We’ll hear from Dr Kelisha B. Graves, Chief Research, Education, and Programs Officer of The Martin Luther King, Jr. Center for Nonviolent Social Change, about the challenges of transformation that come with an effort to digitize, catalogue and build a platform designed to inspire new generations to continue forward the work of Dr Martin Luther King, Jr. and Mrs Coretta Scott King, and empower change makers who are continuing the effort today.

We’ll learn more about the archives, collections and everything associated with preserving the plethora of documents, paintings, objects and compelling audio and visual that tell the important story of the official living memorial of the lives, legacies, and teachings of Dr King and Mrs King. Along with the practical challenges of defining and identifying many of the metadata categories, we’ll hear the strategic direction of The King Library and Archives and plans to leverage opportunities to continue this important mission.
