Photos: MLK Day 2016, Lexington

Despite frigid temperatures, Lexington natives and visitors turned out in large crowds to participate in the 2016 Freedom March celebrating the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. After a cold march, the crowd returned to the Lexington Convention center, and a popular keynote address by actor/activist Danny Glover. Glover recited a lesser-known speech from Dr. King, followed by a Q&A session. While some may be unaware of Glover’s activism, the speaker introducing him likened his efforts and philosophies to Ghandi and Dr. King himself.
