A Thought from Harris County Precinct 7 Constable May Walker
“I would like to express my sincere appreciation and gratitude to the thousands of participants and partners that made the 19th Annual MLK Grande Parade the best it can be. Houstonians have once again, demonstrated the importance of reflecting on the life of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and a legacy that has impacted the whole of humanity. His efforts and sacrifices has touched lives across all ethnic, cultural, and spiritual beliefs; and indeed His dream has become a reality.”

“I am proud that we Houstonians have once again shown our admiration for the many accomplishments of Dr. Martin Luther King as well as our dedication to celebrating his legacy. Thank you for your commitment to making the 2013 MLK Grande Parade such a success. I trust that we will continue using this holiday as an opportunity for us to reflect on the story and the numerous contributions of Dr. King. Let us also continue to remember the many other unsung heroes and heroines who sacrificed while seeking positive societal change. ‘Keep the Dream Alive.’”
