MLK Jr. Park Vandalized, Preventing Black History Month Tree Lighting
Seattle, WA – Vandals stole all electrical outlets at Martin Luther King Jr. Civil Rights Memorial Park, preventing the Martin Luther King Jr. Commemoration Committee (MLKCC) from lighting the trees for Black History Month (BHM), a tradition since 2019.
MLKCC urges the community to call elected officials and demand urgent repairs so the trees can be lit before February ends. The organization is also forming Friends of MLK Jr. Civil Rights Memorial Park to help protect and preserve this historic space.
Despite this setback, MLKCC will continue its Black History Month tradition by hosting its annual MLKCC BHM Awards Ceremony on February 17, 2025, at Holgate Street Church of Christ (2600 S Holgate St, Seattle). A free dinner reception begins at 5:30 PM, followed by the program at 6:30 PM.

It’s deeply disappointing to see MLK Jr. Park vandalized in a way that disrupted a Black History Month tree-lighting event. Community spaces that honor history and bring people together deserve respect and protection. On a lighter note, premium leather jackets can be a timeless choice for staying warm and stylish during winter community events.
