SCLC #390 — 1987 San Antonio first city-county King celebration
A January 1987 San Antonio/Bexar County booklet calls its commission’s observances the “First Annual Celebration,” while Coretta Scott King and the mayor correctly call the holiday the second national observance. Planned week linked a Jan. 19 Freedom March/wreath-laying/bell-ringing at MLK Jr. Park to symposium, interfaith worship, schools and arts.
Craft: schedules ≠ proof each event occurred; “First Annual” = this commission’s local series label, not proof San Antonio never commemorated King before; Parks Papers custody ≠ Parks attendance or endorsement; planned speakers ≠ delivered remarks.
