There are various reasons people were not able to participate in local events honoring Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. this month. We have compiled some resources that will help you continue to honor him, learn from him, and persist in his work.
On the Be the Bridge Podcast, Latasha Morrison was joined by Jefferson Jones and Sarah Connatser from the Be the Bridge team to discuss the emotions surrounding the inauguration coinciding with MLK Day. They talked about some of his work and why it is important to persevere with hope. You’ll find the conversation in two parts on your podcast app.
PRINCIPLE ONE: Nonviolence Is a Way of Life for Courageous People.
PRINCIPLE TWO: Nonviolence Seeks to Win Friendship and Understanding.
PRINCIPLE THREE: Nonviolence Seeks to Defeat Injustice, or Evil, Not People.
PRINCIPLE FOUR: Nonviolence Holds That Unearned, Voluntary Suffering for a Just Cause Can Educate and Transform People and Societies.
PRINCIPLE FIVE: Nonviolence Chooses Love Instead of Hate.
PRINCIPLE SIX: Nonviolence Believes That the Universe Is on the Side of Justice.
