The 1,000 Mile March will recreate a portion of King’s historic 1966 march into Marquette Park and celebrate the tremendous efforts of community members, organizations and institutions to create a more just city, while recognizing that we still have many more miles to go. King marched with 700 others that August 5th day, and this year’s 1,000 Mile March will bring that many people and more together from across the city and country to gather in unity and march for peace and justice on August 6, 2016.

Registration is $25 per marcher – the fee will help pay for t-shirts, security and other march expenses.
