The Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Parade will begin at noon on Monday, January 20, at the intersection of Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard and N. Eutaw Street. It will travel down MLK Jr. Blvd. and disband at Baltimore Street. Embodying the theme Building Bridges, Breaking Barriers – the Grand Marshal leading this year’s parade is Baltimore City Solicitor Ebony M. Thompson. Nearly a year ago, the Baltimore City Council made history when they unanimously confirmed Thompson as the first woman and openly gay person to serve in this role. This year’s parade is supported by APG Federal Credit Union, WJZ TV Baltimore, and Radio One: 92Q, Magic 95.9, Spirit 1400 and WOLB 1010.
