Hundreds of people marched in downtown Lexington on Jan. 21 to celebrate the legacy of civil rights leader, the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.

Bernice King, daughter of the late Martin Luther King Jr., brought her father’s message of racial equality to Lexington last Sunday in her keynote address for Washington and Lee University’s 10-day MLK celebration.

Celebration without conflict unfolded as two official but divergent holiday parades took to Lexington’s Main Street last weekend.
