As we organize against violence inflicted on our communities, we must push ourselves to #ReclaimMLK's legacy and be radical instruments of justice. MLK didn’t just dream, he organized & fought economic exploitation, condemned militarism & demanded real redistribution of power

On this day, we remember Dr. King not as a passive symbol of peace, but as a militant architect of "creative tension." We honor his legacy by refusing to wait, by creating the necessary tension, and by fighting with the same unwavering discipline for justice! #ReclaimMLK

📢We can’t let Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s legacy be watered down. #ReclaimMLK 50 years later, MLK’s analysis of society is still hella accurate. We must work to abolish poverty, racism, and militarism from our society, support revolutionary action, and build a world where we can all thrive. We know greed and corruption runs deep when our governments spend more on the military and police than the services our people really need. ➡️MLK delivered “The Three Evils of Society: Racism, Poverty, and Militarism” speech in 1967, giving us a relevant forecast for the fight ahead. Today we honor his legacy to work towards our collective liberation. The need for this freedom work continues today. Before Dr.King was assassinated, his last book was “Where Do We Go From Here? Chaos Or Community.” Through MLK’s message, we are reminded that we can continue this radical work and bring about the liberation MLK and the ancestors of the Civil Rights movement dreamed of, but only if we take action together. Today we’re reclaiming MLK’s legacy; join us for Freedom February and stay tuned for more major projects from M4BL to build community care and power in cities across the country. Want to host your own action with @mvmnt4blklives? Throw down with us next month for #FreedomFebruary at https://t.co/gTjl3ZGDpN 🌟

He supported economic policies that included a redistribution of material resources, a guaranteed job for every citizen, a universal basic income, and social housing for the poor. #drmartinlutherkingjr #reclaimmlk #mlkday #mlkweek
