The Martin Luther King Jr. Papers Project,

Dr Clay Carson will speak to the Parents' Club on 'the Martin Luther King Jr. Papers Project, the Martin Luther King Jr Institute, an enduring link between Stanford and the King legacy'.

Since receiving his doctorate from UCLA in 1975 Dr Carson has taught at Stanford University, where he is now professor of history and director of the King Papers Project. Dr. Carson has also been a visiting professor at American University, the University of California, Berkeley, and Emory University as well as a Fellow at the Center for the Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences at Stanford.

In 1985 Coretta Scott King invited Dr. Carson to direct a long-term project to edit and publish the papers of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. This project was initiated by the Martin Luther King, Jr., Center for Nonviolent Social Change in Atlanta and is being conducted in association with Stanford University and the Martin Luther King, Jr. Estate. Please attend our program to hear more about the King Papers Project under Dr. Carson's direction.
