"Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly." 

— Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. "Letter from Birmingham Jail," April 16, 1963

The celebration of this day and the memory of Dr. King is a reminder that we’ve made progress over the decades, but there is still uncertainty and divisiveness. We must continue to fight the hate and division we are witnessing still to this day. 

 

We have to overcome this hate and focus on progress and moving forward.
