“Driven by the Dream” — that’s the theme of this year’s MLK Day celebrations at Eastern Michigan University. The keynote address at the annual president’s luncheon on Monday will be delivered by the honorable Victoria Pratt. The former Chief Judge of Newark Municipal Courts in New Jersey is internationally renowned for her efforts to transform the judicial system. Her book, “The Power of Dignity,” makes the case that transforming justice will heal our communities. That is the dream that drives Judge Pratt, as you'll hear in her conversation with WEMU’s David Fair.
