Choose Nonviolence


January 20 2014 is Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

The theme for the 2014 King holiday observance by the King Center, in Atlanta, CA is Remember! Celebrate! Act! King's Legacy of Peace for Our World.  It underscores the urgency of Dr. King’s challenge to people of every nation to choose nonviolence as a way of life, as well as a method for peaceful social change. 

People all over the world are crying out for an end to the senseless violence that afflicts their families, communities, nations and world. 

Bernice A. King, CEO of The King Center said, "Our hope is that The 2014 MLK holiday observance will help lay the foundation for a world-wide movement to begin building the beloved community of my father’s dream.”
