Despite delays in the Martin Luther King memorial unveiling, BET and Centric TV will still honor Dr. King today with special programming on their networks.

The network says it still plans to air programs related to the slain civil rights leader Sunday, including “Alpha Man: The Brotherhood of MLK,” a special examining King’s role in the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity.

Along with the MLK festivities, the network will also air “Michelle Obama on a Mission: Impact Africa,” which chronicles the First Lady’s travels to South Africa and Botswana.
