Greetings Visionaires -

This year's Pullman-Moscow Martin Luther King, Jr., human rights events
feature a visit from the late civil rights leader's daughter, Yolanda King.
She will address the community for free at 7 p.m., Wednesday, Jan. 12, at
the Beasley Performing Arts Coliseum at Washington State University. Her
topic is "Multicultural Diversity -- The New Frontier," a call for social
change and a vision for world peace. It is open to the public, sponsored by
WSU and UI.

The noon meet-and-greet reception and luncheon for Ms. King have been
cancelled. All other human rights activities of both WSU and UI from Jan.
12-18 now are listed at:

Another of the scheduled events that is of particular interest is:

Saturday (January 15th), 3:00
Spoken Word Exhibition - Distinguished Guest: Saul Williams

Saul Williams, international acclaimed spoken word artist, will make his
first ever visit to the WSU Pullman campus as the distinguished guest for
this year's Spoken Word Exhibition.  Never before has the power of the word
and ability to dictate reality been expressed so clearly and creatively at
once, than through the lyrical fervor of Saul Williams's spoken word art.  
Location: Bryan Hall Auditorium

Resistance" sound file at:

Until then . . .

Take care of yourselves and each other.
