The dual celebrations of a second Trump inauguration and the civil rights leader’s birth raise profound questions about Black leadership and progress toward the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s dream.

The coincidence that Martin Luther King Jr. Day lands on the same  Monday as Donald Trump’s inauguration isn’t a cause for concern, Bernice King told NBC News, the late civil rights icon’s daughter.

And it will be more than two decades before it happens again. The next time Martin Luther King Jr. Day falls on Jan. 20 during an inauguration year will be the 2053 Inauguration Day for the 2052 Presidential Election.

Trump is only the third president to be sworn in on Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Due to the particulars of the calendar and the Constitution, the two events won't overlap again until 2053.

As Martin Luther King Jr. Day lands on Inauguration Day this year, Boston area organizations and leaders are planning a slew of activities to mark the holiday. The day will kick off at the Omni Seaport Hotel in Boston with the 55th Annual Martin Luther King Jr.

Where King's vision was rooted in the American dream, in liberty and justice for all, Trump’s is fueled by pettiness, vengeance, division, and flagrant inequality of justice in action.
