Politicians, activists, teachers and clergy braved the snow Monday morning to attend Boston's annual Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial breakfast for the first time since the pandemic.Boston Mayor Michelle Wu was visibly moved when she took the podium. She abandoned her prepared remarks and reflected on the vitriol that still runs through American politics, five decades after Dr. King's assassination.
Gov. Maura Healey addresses the crowd at the 53rd annual Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial Breakfast. "I don't want to romanticize resilience, that our teachers are dipping into their own pockets to resource their classrooms or to feed their students," she said."And then we lift them up and say how extraordinary this is? That is an outrage."
