Hosted by Martin Luther King, III, this event marks the Fourth Annual King Day Commemoration and the Second Annual Realizing the Dream Awards Celebration. Joined by an array of national leaders and dignitaries, Mr. King will continue the King Day tradition by honoring the legacy of his father and calling for a renewed national commitment to his dreams and ideals. He will also present awards to four outstanding individuals, both local and international, whose lives embody Dr. King's dream of the "Beloved Community" for all. Last year, former President William J. Clinton received the Realizing the Dream Award - the organization's highest honor - for his tireless work against poverty and disease at the Clinton Foundation.
