Martin Luther King, Jr. marching during the movement.

"If peace means keeping my mouth shut in the midst of injustice and evil, I don't want it." MLK, Jr, 1956. The Rev. Dr. King died fighting for justice and equality for the working poor. As you remember his birth don’t misremember his life.

β€œCowardice asks the question, β€˜Is it safe?’ Expediency asks the question, β€˜Is it politic?’ But conscience asks the question, β€˜Is it right?’ And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular but because conscience tells one it is right.”

From Indigenous Environmental Network: πŸ•ŠοΈβœ¨ On this MLK Jr. Day, let us honor Dr. King's legacy by raising our voices for justice, equality, and freedom. His words remind us that silence in the face of injustice is not an option. The time to act is now.

Today, I choose to honor one man, Martin Luther King, Jr., and all those who take the time to walk in another’s shoes and fight for justice and fairness, from the Indigenous to the immigrant to the LGBTQ community to all the colors that make up our country. There is no more patriotic quest.

I remember when humans didn’t have vaccines yet.

They died a lot.

Collective Survival, Adaptation and Direct Action Defiance must be woven into the fabric of our daily lives, rather than simply proclaimed at marches or on social media.
