Utahns rally, march to honor life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
At East High School in Salt Lake City, hundreds of people converged in the parking lot for a rally and march put on by the University of Utah.
Mary Ann Villarreal, Vice President of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion with the University of Utah, says the event normally begins in the auditorium. However, after the event was canceled last year, partially due to the COVID-19 pandemic, they held the rally outside. "I believe strongly that a majority of my constituents in Salt Lake County are with us in heart and spirit today," said Mayor Wilson.
