On April 23, 1965, Martin Luther King Jr. led a significant march in Boston to protest racial inequalities. In honor of this historic event, leaders, activists, and citizens gathered at Boston Common to reflect on King's legacy and discuss ongoing struggles against injustices, including racism and economic inequality. Martin Luther King III emphasized the need for continued action and love in pursuing a better America, while U.S. Rep. Ayanna Pressley highlighted contemporary issues like white supremacy and the importance of demanding justice. The event served as a rallying call for community and democracy.
I think my father and mother would challenge us to be a better America because we can become that. It starts with something called love.
We don't have the luxury of stopping. We don't have the luxury of giving in or giving out. We have to keep moving forward until that dream that Dad shared becomes real for all humankind.
