Afterward, the crowd moved to the Howard Gilman Opera House for several speeches on the legacy of Dr. King, including a particularly poignant keynote by Angela Davis. Davis is an activist, author, professor, and one of the most important voices in the ongoing struggle for social justice. The Tribute also featured inspired performances by José James and the Christian Cultural Center Choir.
