A rousing celebration of diversity, unity and peace, "King’s Dream" has been rescheduled for 8 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 19, in the Perkins Student Center Auditorium at Penn State Berks. Originally scheduled for Feb. 5, the performance was postponed due to inclement weather. This event is free and open to the public.

Powerful images, thought-provoking commentary and captivating archival film footage tell the story of the American civil rights movement through performance and multimedia presentation. Relive the most memorable events in King’s life, and the historic contributions of Rosa Parks, the Arkansas Nine, the Freedom Fighters, and those who risked it all for social justice and equal rights. Archival film chronicles John F. Kennedy and Lyndon B. Johnson’s courageous attempts to change social norms, while struggling with the complexity of the Vietnam War and other global issues during the 1960s.
