AP Photos The 2017 Golden Globes gave awards to three black actors: Tracee Ellis Ross (for Black‐ ish), Viola Davis (for Fences) and Donald Glover (for Atlanta). This falls short of the highest number of Globes given to actors of color in a single night. That record was set in 2007, which also saw three black film actors win Globes — Eddie Murphy and Jennifer Hudson for Dreamgirls, plus Forest Whitaker for The Last King of Martin Luther King Jr., addresses a crowd from the steps of the Lincoln Memorial where he delivered his Scotland.

Weekend Schedule As we witness the transfer of presidential power from President Barack H. Obama to President Donald J. Trump, it is quite appropriate to apply some the long‐lasting and endur‐ ing tenets of Martin Luther King’s leadership, teachings, and perspectives. Dr. King and the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) prophetically stood strong for freedom, justice, and equality for Black Americans and for all people who cried out for a better qual‐ ity of life throughout the world. Dr. King was more than one of the greatest orators and preachers of the 20th century. He was one of the most effective intellectual theologians whose moral genius and courage helped irreversibly to change the course of American history for civil and human rights. No man or woman is perfect. Yet Dr. King’s leadership inspired and motivated millions of Black Americans and others to strive toward the perfection equal justice for all through nonvio‐ lent social change and transformation.
