Breakfast and unity are two things we could all use more of. While that may be a somewhat questionable way to start a blurb about an event celebrating Monday's Martin Luther King Jr. holiday celebration, we're rolling with it. Besides, what's really important is only that you take note of this worthy event, presented by the University of Washington Tacoma and the Black Student Union in commemoration of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.  Monday's UWT MLK Unity Breakfast will feature keynote speaker Kevin Gover, director of the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of the American Indian, in addition to community recognition awards, local performing artists and a new essay scholarship for current and potential students. According to hype, registration for the annual Unity Breakfast at UWT's William W. Phillip Hall is limited to the first 300 paid registrations, with online registration available here.

[William W. Philip Hall, 8-10:30 a.m., $10 for UW students, $15 general public, $5 kids 10 and younger, 1900 Commerce St., Tacoma, www.tacoma.washington.edu/mlk]
