Remembering Dr. Martin Luther King

Today marks the forty-fourth anniversary of the day when Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated in Memphis, Tennessee.

Dr. King was a pivotal leader and role model for many, especially those of us who strongly identify with, and dedicate our lives to the Peace Movement. He had much wisdom to share at such an incredibly young age, and there could have been so much more for fellow members of the human race to have learned from his teachings...

There were also many aspects to the work Dr. King had accomplished within his short lifespan, though only a select few were commonly known. For example, how many history books or biographical documentaries have made point to explain the extent of his compassion for all beings? The fact that Martin Luther King Jr. and his family believed in equal regard for all species seems a little-known fact to most. However, we feel that it is one of the most important aspects of their cumulative life's work and overall existence. His death was indeed an untimely and truly unspeakable tragedy, but it is also incredibly inspiring to see his benevolence live on in the hearts and deeds of those he left behind.

Today we offer gratitude & utmost respect to Dr. Martin Luther King and his family: Civil rights leaders, anti-speciesism advocates, and fellow Earthlings.




Blessings to all of those who have made the conscious decision to follow his fine example.
