This week a few posts have popped into the GetHiroshima Twitter feed saying how cool it is that Martin Luther King Day is "celebrated" in Hiroshima. It's also popped up on the web, and it seems that the source is the Martin Luther King Day Wikipedia entry, which states
One place where this day is observed as important is in the Japanese city of Hiroshima under mayor Tadatoshi Akiba, who holds a special banquet at the mayor's office as an act of unifying his city's call for peace with King's message of human rights.citing this source from 2005.
Anyone know if this is an annual one that is ongoing and who attends it?
