The Time Is Now to Do the RIGHT THING.

“Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, What are you doing for others?”
-Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Today, we honor Dr. King’s enduring legacy of service, justice, and love. His work reminds us that progress happens when courage meets compassion and when everyday people choose to stand for what’s right.

May we continue the work, not just today, but every day.

Each One, Teach One.

We must teach the next generation about the real Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. and his activism — the man, not just the hero. Revisit Learning for Justice's Teaching Hard History podcast episode highlighting King's legacy. 🎧: https://bit.ly/3W9jXo9

Honor King by discussing his work with the young people in your life, and explore how the same issues he and many other civil rights figures marched for in the 1960s still affect us today.
