The SC Progressive Network<\/a> helped boost the numbers at this year’s King Day at the Dome, which attracted fewer people than in years past. We can assume that many of the folks that filled the State House grounds last year are in DC to witness an historic inauguration.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Even here, we share the feeling of expectation and celebration. Braving the winter chill, these Network groups were in the crowd at the State House to remember the life of Martin Luther King, Jr.: Charleston CLC, Columbia CLC, AFL-CIO, SC Equality<\/a>, Sean’s Last Wish<\/a>, SC Pride<\/a>, PFLAG,\u00a0Carolina Peace Resource Center<\/a>,\u00a0Grimke Sisters<\/a> and Columbia’s Unitarian Universalist Fellowship<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Thanks to everyone who turned out.<\/p>\n
