As we honor the life and legacy of the incomparable Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., let us do so by using his words as a call to action to continue the fight for a more equitable and just future. "We are now faced with the fact that tomorrow is today. We are confronted with the fierce urgency of now. In this unfolding conundrum of life and history, there "is" such a thing as being too late. This is no time for apathy or complacency. This is a time for vigorous and positive action."
