WABI covers Martin Luther King Jr. breakfast
WABI (Channel 5) covered the annual Martin Luther King Jr. Breakfast Celebration at the University of Maine. Originally scheduled for Jan. 21, the event was moved to March 2 due to inclement weather. The celebration of King’s life, legacy and dedication to diversity included food and music, and was co-sponsored by the Greater Bangor Area NAACP and UMaine Division of Student Life, WABI reported. “We’re so thrilled that so many people came today to celebrate what I would like to call as sort of pushing back the dark and working for justice, equality, diversity and inclusion,” said Robert Dana, vice president for student life at UMaine. “I think that people felt as though together we can make a big difference.”
