Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. remains one of the most powerful moral voices in American history, known for his unyielding commitments to justice, equality, and moral high ground. He is revered in large part for his leadership during the Civil Rights Movement, which transformed the nation by advancing civil rights, challenging systemic racism, and calling on Americans to live up to the highest ideals and promises of the founding fathers—”all men are created equal.” Today, America continues to grapple with division, inequality, and polarized politics. King’s vision is as relevant in 2025 as it was when the Civil Rights Act passed in 1964.
