Ohio Civil Rights Commission to Host ?Let Freedom Ring,? A Tribute to Dr. King and to Announce Ohio Civil Rights Hall of Fame Inductees

Ohio Civil Rights Commission to Host “Let Freedom Ring,” A Tribute to Dr. King and to Announce Ohio Civil Rights Hall of Fame Inductees










Columbus, OH (PRWEB) January 19, 2006

The Ohio Civil Rights Commission (OCRC) will host a tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. “Let Freedom Ring,” an evening of selected readings by Ohio celebrity voices and spiritual songs from the civil rights era at the Statehouse Atrium, in Columbus, Ohio on Monday, January 23, 2006 at 6:00 p.m.

The celebration will be a musical and theatrical tribute to the civil rights era through songs, poetry, and the dramatic reading of famous civil rights speeches through the ages. Presenters include Lt. Governor Bruce Johnson, State Senators Ray Miller (D-Columbus) and David Goodman (R-Columbus); James Stowe, Executive Director of Columbus Community Relations Commission; and Representative Joyce Beatty (D-Columbus). OCRC Commissioner Jeanine P. Donaldson, and Errol Browne will perform musical selections.

“The ‘Let Freedom Ring’ celebration will serve as a reminder that the price of freedom is not cheap, and that democracy is not a spectator sport. These men and woman, black and white, of all religions capture the true essence of freedom and we will celebrate their legacy so that future generations will continue to carry the torch of justice,” said OCRC Executive Director, G. Michael Payton. “Let Freedom Ring’ reminds us that we must continue to aspire for the goal of liberty and justice for all.”

In recognition of those Ohioans who dared to be pioneers in human and civil rights the Commission will announce its first inductees to the Ohio Civil Rights Commission Hall of Fame at the ceremony. This event is open to the general public, but a reservation is required to ensure adequate space. For more information call 1(888) 278-7101, Office of Public Affairs.
