Today, we honor the life, legacy, and enduring moral courage of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. on what would have been his 97th birthday.

His belief that “unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality” continues to guide our work to help humanity create the Beloved Community—through justice, truth-telling, and nonviolence.

We remember.
We recommit.
We carry the work forward.

The King Center mourns the passing of Viola “Mother” Fletcher, one of the last known survivors of the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre.

Born May 10, 1914, Mother Fletcher carried the truth of Greenwood with strength, dignity, and unwavering courage.

Her voice helped ensure that one of our nation’s greatest tragedies would not be erased from memory.
We honor her life, her resilience, and her commitment to justice.

May her legacy continue to guide us as we work to build a more just, humane, and peaceful world.

Rest in power, Mother Fletcher.
