Men and women of every race, faith and age are invited to take to the streets of Clarkesville Sunday to celebrate the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. The Northeast Georgia Peace Walk is set for 2 p.m., starting at the gazebo on the square in downtown Clarkesville and ending with a program of celebration at Grace-Calvary Episcopal Church. This year’s Peace Walk is set to be one of the largest and most diverse of the last three decades. “Over the years we have worked to bring diversity to the celebration — and a few times have managed to get Hispanic or Laotian groups involved, but never both together,” said Julianne Wilson, event organizer, in a release.
