“Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. is one of history’s most revered figures—and for good reason. His message of compassion and brotherhood, his calls for peace and equality, and his strength of character helped shape our nation and inspire generations. His vision and his actions forever changed our country. Today, we honor the principles and the values Dr. King embodied and fought for, and we remember how important it is that we continue to unite together behind his dream.”
