The Riverside Church
The Riverside Church is an interdenominational, interracial, international, open, welcoming, and affirming church and congregation.
Exactly one year before his April 4, 1968 assassination, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. stood in The Riverside Church to deliver his Beyond Vietnam address against the sins of poverty, racism, and militarism. Confronted by the fierce urgency of now, The Riverside Church is launching Beyond the Dream: Living King's Legacy, a year of education and action to call us toward a more just and peaceful society.
