🗣️”May I remind you that starving a child is violence. Neglecting school children is violence. Punishing a mother and her family is violence. Discrimination against a working man is violence. Ghetto housing is violence. Ignoring medical need is violence. Contempt for poverty is violence. Even the lack of willpower to help humanity is a sick and sinister form of violence.” #CorettaScottKing #Coretta99 #DearCoretta #MLK #TheKingCenter

To adjust is to be complicit. Let’s not adjust to mass shootings. Let’s not adjust to institutionalized racism. Let’s not adjust to voter suppression. Let’s not adjust to police brutality. Let’s not adjust to poverty and despair. Let’s not adjust to any forms of violence.

Dr. Carla Hayden, the first woman and African American Librarian of Congress, was abruptly dismissed this week by President Trump. Her leadership modernized the institution and championed inclusive access to knowledge. Her removal raises urgent concerns about political interference in our cultural guardianships.

Newark Mayor #RasBaraka was arrested while peacefully protesting outside an #ICE facility — standing in solidarity with immigrants detained in inhumane conditions. When elected officials peacefully put their bodies on the line for justice, they demonstrate the sacrificial power of nonviolent resistance. This moment demands moral courage. It demands public servants who serve the people, not power. Mayor Ras Baraka got into ”good trouble” and is standing up for the people of his city.
