2025 Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Civil 
and Human Rights Conference

January 9-12

Austin, Texas 

The 2025 Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Civil and Human Rights Conference will serve as a critical opportunity to strengthen our community and build solidarity. Together, we will advance Dr. King’s vision of collective action, reinforce the longstanding bond between the labor and civil rights movements, and channel our strength and energy into substantive action to build worker power.

Leaders and stakeholders from across the labor, civil rights and social justice movements will identify the unique role that working people will play in defending our rights and freedoms from those who want to divide us. And we will plan the pathway forward—with the power of our members, our coalition and our community—to continue our historic organizing wins, take on corporate greed and rewrite the rules to expand our movement.

Together, we will reckon with the urgency of this moment and build on the deep roots of solidarity to lead the fights ahead.
