Today, we honor the life of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., his work, and his legacyโto keep fighting in the pursuit of equality and justice for all.
From our book, The ABCs of Black History by Rio Cortez: โIn the 1950s, as Black people continued to fight to be fully recognized as human beings, church leaders came together to do their part. They chose Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr. (1929-1968), a young minister at Dexter Avenue Baptist Church in Montgomery, Alabama, as their spokesperson. Reverend King went on to become a powerful voice in the fight for civil rights.โ
We remember his words and reflect upon their meaning: โThe ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.โ
