John R Naugle was at the KING Center’s 50th Anniversary event on June 26th and captured these wonderful images of the celebration. Dr. King’s big sister, Dr. Christine King Farris, was in attendance on the exact 50th Anniversary in the founding of the KING Center. It was especially fantastic that Dr. Bernice A. King highlighted Gandhi’s influence (and the KING Center’s Room for Gandhi) during her speech. This year also marks the 20th anniversary in the dedication of the Gandhi Statue at the MLK National Historic site (1998-2018).
