The president of Bulloch County’s NAACP chapter hopes people of all races participate and enjoy what she called a “community celebration” planned to honor Martin Luther King Jr. on Monday. King, a Baptist minister and civil rights activist from Atlanta, was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964, and after he was assassinated by James Earl Ray in 1968, he was posthumously awarded the Congressional Gold Medal and Medal of Freedom. He is known for his efforts toward peace and unity.
