MLK Jr Day of Thanks at D-UP

After the moving words of Mrs. Mary Lou Blakeney at Penn Griffins February 11th Celebration last year, D-UP proceeded with the idea for a citywide thank you project that anyone and everyone can be involved in. The goal is to write 211 thank you notes for each of the 26 members of the High Point Woolworths sit-ins that took place on February 11th 1960.

We invite you to stop by D-UP to fill out some thank you notes for this great effort and come learn about the individuals who were part of the impactful civil rights movements right here in High Point.
