The Reverend Willie Bodrick II ’20 – In this Moment

The Northeastern community gathered on Monday, January 17, 2022, to honor Dr. Martin Luther King’s legacy. The university’s annual event, “A Tribute to the Dream: Voting Rights and the ‘Threat to Justice Everywhere,’” was streamed on Facebook and featured a video tribute by the Reverend Willie Bodrick II ’20, senior pastor at Boston’s Twelfth Baptist Church. “What encourages me from Dr. King is that in his moment, he knew it was his time,” said Bodrick. “And in this moment, I know that it’s my time.”
