> Dear Dawn,
> 
> Today is the day we honor the birthday of the great Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. He is known for leading the movement to end segregation and counter prejudice in the United States through the means of peaceful protest. 
> 
> Dr. King’s work drastically changed democracy and racial equality in the U.S., but there is still work to be done in creating a just society for all. As we look at the struggles of the Civil Rights era and the challenges people face with equality today, we can see that their hard-won successes have come from people coming together under a unified cause and belief. 
> 
> Our faith climate movement reflects this strategy of unification. As an interfaith organization, we know that across religious and spiritual ideologies, we all share a common goal: to protect and care for God’s Creation and all that share this common home. This is the work we do when we take action in our communities to reduce our carbon emissions or support our neighbors who have been disproportionately affected by climate change. 
> 
> I would like to share some words from our Board President Emeritus, Dr. Rev. Gerald Durley, who had the privilege to march with Dr. King in 1963.
> 
> "You cannot talk about health, you cannot talk about economics unless you talk about the environment in which we live. Dr. King taught us that we ought to look at the soul of America. The major civil rights movement now is in the area of climate change and what it's doing to all people. And. if our destiny is victory, we've got to say something and say it so people can believe it. Organize, strategize, and mobilize. Never forget this: we're on the winning team."
