MLK Day
"Dr. King's legacy has been whitewashed for many decades. The state would have us believe he was a passive figure. The truth is he was a radical leader, unshakable in his demands for rational change: an end to capitalism, to war, to poverty, and to white supremacy.
He helped shape our nation’s understanding of people-power, collective action and social justice.
Communities CAN come together to advocate for a cause and inspire cultural and legislative changes."
