For the nearly forty years, the Black Heritage Society’s “Original” Martin Luther King, Jr. Birthday Parade Celebration (licensed by the King Center – Atlanta, Georgia) continues to celebrate the spirit and the legacy of Dr. King with the support of the King family, and many notable friends and esteemed community members. Over the years, our parade has gained the support of Houston citizens by remaining actively involved with various outreach initiatives across many platforms – including Education, Social Justice, Health and Wellness, and many more. Our goal is to keep the legacy of Dr. King alive by pledging our commitment for the cultural, educational, social and economic advancement for our disenfranchised communities. In addition to this year’s parade, Black Heritage Society will also oversee the renovations of the Martin Luther King Statue & “Tree of Life” Plaza at MacGregor Park to include the addition of Bench statues – featuring Rosa Park, Nelson Mandela, and other notable global human rights figures.
