Look for an area marked out in chalk on the street that says \"GROUP 327.\" <br><br> Join with Rev. James Lawson, the veteran civil rights leader who marched and organized alongside Rev. Martin Luther King; Interfaith Communities United for Justice and Peace (ICUJP); The Coalition Against Militarism in Schools (CAMS); and CODEPINK-LA to honor Rev. Martin Luther King's legacy of peace and opposition to war and violence in the Los Angeles Kingdom Day Parade. <br>  <br> We will be marching in the parade as a registered group under ICUJP banner to bring a much-needed emphasis on King's legacy of non-violence to a celebration of King's life that has become far too dominated by a military presence. <br><br> Please wear white (a white sash or t-shirt is fine) so that the group can have a unified presence.  You are welcome to make and bring your own PINK signs that honor Dr. King's legacy of non-violence.  ICUJP will also have signs made for participants to carry. <br><br> For more information please call ICUJP office at (626) 683-9004 or check out www.icujp.org <br>  <br> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.codepinkalert.org\/Local_CODEPINKs_Los_Angeles2.shtml\">http:\/\/www.codepinkalert.org\/Local_CODEPINKs_Los_Angeles2.shtml<\/a> <br>  <br> <\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","contact":"","link":"http:\/\/www.codepinkalert.org\/Local_CODEPINKs_Los_Angeles2.shtml","address":"","phone":"","parent_id":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","summary":"http:\/\/www.codepinkalert.org\/Local_CODEPINKs_Los_Angeles2.shtml","numcomment":1,"fileurl":"\/uploads\/2005\/01\/mlk-spiritualdeath.jpgqlpjsa.jpg","filesize":"48.5 kibibytes","article_url":"\/news\/2005\/01\/121199.php","image":{"original":"\/uploads\/2005\/01\/mlk-spiritualdeath.jpgqlpjsa.jpg","small":"\/uploads\/2005\/01\/mlk-spiritualdeath.jpgqlpjsa.jpgthumb.jpg","medium":"\/uploads\/2005\/01\/mlk-spiritualdeath.jpgqlpjsa.jpgmid.jpg"}},"attachments":[],"comments":[{"id":121209,"heading":"The Far right has co-opted King day","article":"Kingdom Day Parade:\r\nThe Council on Racial Equality (CORE) sponsors a parade in honor of Martin Luther King each January  which travels the two-mile distance from Martin Luther King Boulevard near Crenshaw to Western. \r\n\r\nSadly CORE is no longer what it once was.
