Martin Luther King, Jr. - Love, Unity, Light, and Justice
Dr. King is a unique leader that has both love and law in his heart. I am speaking of him still in the present since he is with us in spirit and his dream is alive.
Whenever the world goes a little "darker" and I wonder when will a serious shift in human consciousness will occur I remember his words:
"darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that." (King, Strength to Love, 1963).
So simple and elegant.
I met Dr. King's writings at Antioch University. I was going to Antioch for a year and a half while I was finishing my degree in literature at the University of Washington. I needed some courses in social justice and globalism and Antioch had some professors I admired.
One of the professors there worked at Martin Luther King's organization and she encouraged me to enter into International Relations for my PhD. I fell in love with Dr. King's writings - he has that amazing love and practical wisdom that is so rare in leaders.
And so today we walk alongside Dr. King and ask ourselves, how can I create more unity and love in the community around me?
All it takes in 1 degree shift.
Yours as Always,
Dohrea
