About this Act

Each year, communities around the world host "teach-ins" to educate others on the legacy and continued vision of Dr. and Mrs. King. These events take place at schools and other community-organizations throughout the same week as MLK Jr. Day. Are you interested in hosting or attending a Beloved Community Teach-In? Check-out the information below and head over to thekingcenter.org. Make sure to let us know if you participated in a teach-in this year by clicking on "Show Your Support" at the right side of this page.
On January 13, 2023, in celebration of the King Holiday, The King Center is calling on educational institutions and organizations around the globe to join us for a worldwide Teach-In. The purpose of the Beloved Community Teach-In is to educate people of all ages about Dr. and Mrs. King’s legacy and how to champion completion of their unfinished work.
The theme for the 2023 King Holiday Observance is “It Starts with Me: Cultivating a Beloved Community Mindset to Transform Unjust Systems.” In keeping with the theme, PK-12 lesson plans for the 2023 Teach-In will reinforce the knowledge, skills and dispositions students need to not only to be positive contributors to creation of the “Beloved Community” but also to succeed in their respective life paths. Full lesson plans with objectives, activities and an assessment will be available upon registration.
