“I must confess that over the last few years I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro’s great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen’s Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to “order” than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice;”
– Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr., 16 April 1963,
excerpt from Letter from Birmingham Jail
We remain on a long, winding journey toward a world free of systemic racism—one where the initial outrage sparked by injustice too often recedes into silence, and even backlash, over time. Together, we will explore this road with candor, humor, reflection, and a willingness to embrace discomfort.
Our path forward calls us to grow, to act, and to move beyond complacency, transforming aspiration into tangible change.
