“…we are going to continue to stand up for
what is right. Fear not, we’ve come too far to turn back… we are not afraid and
we shall overcome.” — Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Between the astonishingly powerful film
“Selma” in theaters this
month, and the celebrations taking place across the U.S. today, Dr. King’s
legacy is all around us. And his message is as relevant today as it was fifty
years ago: The arc of the moral universe may indeed bend toward justice, but it
doesn’t bend of its own accord. It takes the creative, untiring action of
countless ordinary people to bring about lasting social change. And so it is
that we launch our call for action for farm labor justice again this spring,
with a unique Parade and Concert for Fair Food this March 21st!
