Martin Luther King Jr. Day Marade

As proponents of civil and racial justice, One Colorado joined with thousands of others in celebrating the memory of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. on January 20th. The 2014 Marade, the largest MLK rally in the country, began with a ceremony in City Park, Denver. After remarks by a number of speakers, the crowd marched down Colfax for a rally and birthday cake in Denver’s Civic Center Park. Speakers included Governor John W. Hickenlooper, Denver Mayor Michael Hancock, Aurora Mayor Steve Hogan, Senator Mark Udall, Congressman Congressman Ed Perlmutter, Congressman Mike Coffman and former Denver Mayor Wellington E Webb.
