Hill Calls for Unity in MLK Jr. Commemoration Keynote Speech
Grant Hill, basketball legend and Duke trustee served as the keynote speaker for this year's Martin Luther King Jr. Day commemoration held this past Sunday at Duke Chapel. The ceremony also featured remarks from President Vincent Price, the "Sim Shalom" blessing of peace from campus rabbi Elana Friedman and benediction from campus Muslim chaplain Joshua Salaam.
"With everything happening in the world, in America, in Durham, we have a responsibility to repair. On this day set aside to honor Dr. Martin Luther King’s vision, we confront a fierce urgency to fix what’s broken. But we cannot come together to do that work until we talk honestly about the divisions that push us apart." -Grant Hill
