Dear Friend,

Today, as President Jimmy Carter's life is celebrated in Washington, DC
and across the nation, we pause to reflect on the extraordinary legacy of
a man who showed us that the constraints of time and place need not stop
us from doing what is right.

In an op-ed published in The Hill this week, People For president, Svante
Myrick, reflects on Carter’s enduring example – from his advocacy for
civil rights to his lifelong commitment to justice and equality:

President Carter left America a positive path through the Trump
presidency

I grew up in a small rural village. Full of lovely, wonderful people.
But I often heard — as I am sure you have, dear reader — my friends
excuse the bigotry and small-mindedness of their relatives with this
simple expression: “Oh, they’re of a different time.”

Well, Jimmy Carter was born 100 years ago in rural Georgia. And he
supported civil rights for Black Americans his entire life.

He reminded me of my white grandfather, who was also from a small town
and a “different time” and fully embraced his mixed-race grandson.

We are all creatures of our time and place. But as Carter showed us,
that doesn’t have to stop us from doing the right thing.

As we reflect on Carter’s legacy, Svante’s piece offers a powerful
reminder of the values that must guide us in the years ahead – and how
Carter’s example can inspire us to resist injustice and build a better
future.

Let’s honor President Carter not only by remembering his incredible legacy
but by striving to carry it forward together.

In solidarity,

People For the American Way
