Martin Luther King's legacy of activism and commitment to social justice is reflected in the lives of four Cornell students who discussed their work on behalf of compassionate social change in Sage Chapel Feb. 19.
They were praised by civil rights leader Vincent Harding, who, following their overviews of their work, delivered the 2008 Martin Luther King Jr. Commemorative Lecture. The students' example, he said, made him hopeful about the nation's future.
