BATON ROUGE - From services to special commemorations, the capital city is commemorating Martin Luther King Jr. and his significance in Baton Rouge. 

Today, a number of events kick off for the community to come together to remember how King has changed our community's culture and livelihood, but also reflect on ways our community can grow and change.
