LatestLot’s of people are taking Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday as an opportunity to hit the slopes or save 60% off on hotels, airfare and show tickets and go somewhere tropical. But Oprah Winfrey, who starred in and produced the Martin Luther King Jr. biopic, Selma will be marching in the Alabama city to commemorate the late civil rights giant. Actor David Oyelowo who portrays King and the film’s director, Ava DuVernay will also be marching on Sunday.
