- Gerald L. Smith, UK history professor and Scholar in Residence of the Martin Luther King Center. Smith, who has spent years researching Kentucky CORE personalities, activities, frustrations and accomplishments.

Attendees to the free event will also have the opportunity to view two exhibits that brought the public out in droves when they were previously hosted at the university: Calvert McCann’s collection of photographs he took during the civil rights movement and "Freedom Times: The Underground Railroad."
The afternoon will be devoted to the children, about 100 from 5th through 12th grades, all from different youth groups and programs. Their workshop breakout will focus on economic empowerment, peace education, the Underground Railroad and voting rights and responsilities.
