Honoring Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

On Monday, we honor the legacy and impact of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. 

Dr. King courageously led the civil rights movement in the ’50s. Some of his many accomplishments include leading the Montgomery bus boycott, organizing the March on Washington and delivering his “I have a dream” speech, and receiving a Nobel Peace Prize for nonviolent resistance against racial prejudice.

It’s important that we continue to reflect on Dr. King’s accomplishments and teachings in order to continue the progress towards racial equity.

In Dr. King’s words, “Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.”
