Former State Rep. Wilma J. Webb was deliberate about naming the inaugural Martin Luther King Jr. event a “marade” in 1986 — the word combines “march” and “parade,” and was a way to both “celebrate the victories achieved” and to “confront injustices in the future,” according to the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Colorado Holiday Commission. Monday’s 40th annual Marade was far more focused on “future injustices” than it was on victories achieved. “It is not just about celebrating King, it is about having direct action like King,” said Wellington Webb, former state representative and Denver mayor from 1991-2003, during a speech at the annual event Monday morning.

(Andy Colwell, Special to The Colorado Sun) During his time as a representative, Wellington Webb made three unsuccessful attempts — in 1975, ’76 and ’77 — to pass a bill that would designate a state holiday on Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday. His wife, Wilma, wrote the bill that eventually passed, five attempts and almost a decade later. Wellington began his time on stage Monday by calling all of the lawmakers behind him to take a seat in the front row — “I don’t like talking behind my back,” he said — so he could address them face-to-face. He repeatedly talked about the need to “unmask” Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, and urged lawmakers to criminalize face-coverings during raids and arrests. He also led the crowd in a chant of “Renee Nicole Good,” the name of the woman fatally shot by an ICE agent Jan. 7 in Minneapolis. That chant set the tone.

(Andy Colwell, Special to The Colorado Sun) Denver Mayor Mike Johnston also opened his speech by mentioning Good’s name, and invoking her final words: “I’m not mad at you,” which he said King would have been “deeply proud of.” “The basic notion that the way we struggle against oppression is not by fighting back, but by loving back, that is the deepest, and most difficult, and the most enduring of all of King’s lessons,” Johnston said. U.S. Sens. Michael Bennett and John Hickenlooper, and U.S. Reps. Jason Crow and Joe Neguse, all Democrats, similarly delivered speeches that emphasized standing up to the Trump administration and defending citizens from ICE. U.S. Rep. Jason Crow, Democrat of Colorado’s 6th District, speaks to the crowd assembled in Denver’s City Park for the city’s Martin Luther King Jr. Day Marade. (Andy Colwell, Special to The Colorado Sun) Crow, who is under investigation by the Justice Department for appearing in a video urging members of the military to resist “illegal orders,” brought up the investigation to anchor a speech about standing up to President Donald Trump. “We are seeing so much cowardice. Law firms bending the knee, universities capitulating, CEOs kissing the ring,” Crow said. “Over and over again, people cowing, bowing, prostrating themselves to the altar of Donald Trump.” Politicians and local pastors took turns on the stage beneath the “I Have a Dream” Martin Luther King Jr. memorial statue at Denver City Park from 10 a.m. until about noon, while thousands of people slowly gathered. At noon, the crowd marched roughly 2 miles to Civic Center park along East Colfax Avenue. Thousands march west down Colfax Avenue during the Marade. (Andy Colwell, Special to The Colorado Sun) “I almost protested the Marade today,” said Virgil A. Robinson, a community organizer who participated in Denver’s first MLK Day march in 1981, three years before Rep. Wilma Webb’s House bill declared the state holiday, and five years before the…
