Rep. John Lewis Supports MLK Day Virtual Town Hall

January 17, 2010

"The best way we can honor the life and extend the legacy of Martin Luther King Jr. ," said Rep. John Lewis, "is to serve others. As a King Day of Service Ambassador and a believer in the power of non-violent action, I encourage everyone to spend this day discovering the fulfillment of lending a helping hand. These acts help heal the worst problems in our society and remind us of the oneness of the entire human family. The HandsOn Network MLK Day Virtual Town Hall is a kind of family meeting that brings thousands of people together with one goal in mind-actualizing King's dream of a Beloved Community, a nation and a world at peace with itself."

Log on Monday to see Rep. Lewis and other national leaders live on the MLK Day Virtual Town Hall!
