Honoring Dr. King’s Legacy: BTSC hosts Chicago Historian Dilla during LCA

Honoring Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s Legacy with inspiration and learning.

What better way to celebrate the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. than by fostering education and connection within our community?

We were thrilled to welcome renowned Chicago Urban historian Dilla (@6figga_dilla on instagram) to our Life Champions Academy for a memorable visit. Dilla’s knowledge of Chicago’s history, combined with his ability to bring powerful stories to life, left our kids inspired. His visit was a meaningful reminder of the importance of understanding our history and striving for positive change—values Dr. King lived and died for.

Thank you, Dilla, for sharing your wisdom, passion, and lessons with our Life Champions Academy.
