MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. COMMUNITY REMEMBRANCE


Dr. Terrence James Roberts, one of the famed Little Rock Nine of African American students, whose 
enrollment in Little Rock High School in 1957 sparked a racial confrontation that led to one of the 
most important events in the African American Civil Rights movement, will speak to students and 
other community members in Duarte on Jan. 17. 

 Roberts will recount the historic event at a Community Remembrance program honoring 
the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., beginning at 9 a.m. at the Duarte Performing Arts Center. 
In addition to Dr. Roberts, the event will also showcase a performance by the Duarte Teen Center 
Drama Club and the announcement of the annual Martin Luther King Essay contest winner. 

 Also in honor of the memory of Dr. King, Duarte’s Promise – The Alliance for Youth and 
approximately 40 Duarte High School leadership volunteers planted flowers and shrubbery at the
