"Privileged groups rarely give up their privileges without strong resistance," reads Scott Farnworth of HACTC from Dr. Martin Luther King's Nonviolence and Racial Justice. Hear Dr. King's words chosen by community members Megan Coleman, Joe Major, Sharon Racusin, Maggi Ibrahim, Jordyn Fitch and Maeve Littau, Ally Tufenkjian, Jan Abbott, Peggy Allen, and the Green family to read aloud and reflect upon for their enduring truth and urgency.
