"These have been the inextricable evils of our day; we cannot address one of them apart from the two others. ...
Greed is racism's fuel. Only when this history is understood can the proper theological and ethical interventions take place.”
~ Ibid., pp. 6-7

“Notably, [Martin Luther] King, especially in the last few years of his life, drew attention to the three-headed evil that has plagued Western civilization: racism, materialism, and militarism."

7 marzo 1965. A Selma (Alabama), le forze dell’ordine disperdono con la forza un gruppo di 600 dimostranti per il diritto al voto degli afro-americani. L’episodio viene trasmesso per televisione e soprannominato "Bloody Sunday". La reazione degli spettatori alla violenza delle immagini è tale da dare una svolta al Movimento dei diritti civili guidato da #MartinLutherKing.

1/4 des consommateurs étatsuniens boycottent leur magasins habituels pour des raisons politiques
La même proportion a modifié ses habitudes de consommation pour des raisons éthiques.
Signe que les consommateurs qui ont des convictions progressistes commencent à utiliser leur portefeuille en réaction aux positions politiques des entreprises privées.

Dans son discours inaugural, Donald #Trump a promis de « forger une société qui sera indifférente à la couleur de peau et basée sur le mérite », et a osé dire qu’il allait réaliser le « rêve » de #martinlutherking qui représente tout ce qu’il combat.

A prayer I wrote yesterday for Martin Luther King, Jr. for the Prayers of the People at St. James Cathedral in #Chicago.
Our community is a bit unique in that at our 11am service, individual parishioners write the prayers of the people. Each week it is different depending on the intercessor but still reflects the structure within the Book of Common Prayer.
Celebrating Dr King. Here is a 1977 American Airlines advertisement with a family traveling to visit the MLK memorial in New York.

The Rev. Bernice King spoke at the annual service in Atlanta to commemorate her late father and warned against anti-woke rhetoric. “To be woke is to be aware of oppression and commitment to justice,” she told the congregation at Ebenezer Baptist Church, where Martin Luther King Jr. had been preacher. She warned those who would strip away civil rights. "We will not go back!" Here's more from @AssociatedPress.

Die Antrittsrede von #TRUMP ... 
Man kann gar nicht soviel essen wie man kotzen möchte
.. soviel Schwachsinn und Hochmut. Hinterweltlerisch, verlogen, er beruft und vergleicht sich mit #MartinLutherKing der dreht sich im Grabe um ... widerlich
“This is a case of getting out of a certain frame of mind, of a way of thinking about ourselves and about the world.”

"The official organs of the government and press on January 20th will once again urge everyone to remember Martin Luther King, Jr. as a statue from the past, frozen in time, a fighter for racial justice but nothing else. His opposition to the triplets of racism, materialism, and militarism will be ignored. Who will say that if he were alive today he would condemn the genocide in Gaza, the U.S. war against Russian via Ukraine, and war making throughout the world?"
