TESU TO HOST SECOND ANNUAL MLK DISCUSSION

Rev. Dr. Charles Boyer will lead the discussion

TRENTON – Thomas Edison State University (TESU) will host a Second Annual Tribute to Martin Luther King Jr. on Tuesday, Jan. 18, at 11 a.m.

This virtual discussion will feature Rev. Dr. Charles Boyer, pastor of Greater Mt. Zion A.M.E. Church in Trenton and the founder of Salvation and Social Justice, a non-partisan Black faith-rooted organization that believes liberation should precede legislation and prophetic vision should precede public policy. The discussion will focus on health equity, DEI issues, the pandemic’s effect on Trenton residents and MLK’s mission as it relates to the Trenton community.

Dr. Merodie A. Hancock, president, TESU, will welcome Rev. Boyer to the discussion, which is available to the public. Registration to the free event is available here. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar.
