MLK Day 2025: Designing the Future invites all to creatively envision a more equitable and sustainable future, drawing inspiration from the legacy of Floyd McKissick, Sr., and his ambitious vision for Soul City, NC. McKissick, a North Carolina native, attorney, and civil rights leader, sought to create a thriving, self-sustaining community that would provide equal opportunity for Black Americans during the 1970s. This year’s MLK Day celebration honors the themes of this home-state hero’s visionary work and explores its impact through a series of art workshops, performances, thought-provoking discussions, and more.
