MLK International Day of Service 

“Life's most persistent and urgent question is, 'What are you doing for others?” - Dr Martin Luther King, Jr.

Happy MLK Day! To pay homage to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. the Gamma Theta Chapter has highlighted King’s iconic piece of work, “Letter From Birmingham Jail.” We have recognized that history is repeating itself from over 50 years ago during the Civil Rights Movement. But we know that “oppressed people will not remain oppressed forever.”
