A Symbol of Peace – Martin Luther King Jr. Day

“Our lives begin and end the day we become silent about things that matter.” – Martin Luther King Jr.
A symbol of peace, Martin Luther King Jr. sought justice through his voice. Today we celebrate the legacy and change brought to us by this powerful civil rights leader. King had dreams of profound transformation. Through his speech, wisdom, and community, he was the most prominent activist for peace in the 1950s.
King believed in equality and, most importantly, love. When a community of strong people comes together, great change is possible! A complete transformation of culture needed to take place, and in doing so, he brought light to racism, violence, poverty, and injustice. The movement he set in place would work to remake an entire culture. His belief was the protection and value of every person and community.
