Gratitude to a man who stood up for inclusivity with dignity and grace. By using non-violent civil disobedience, and without Twitter, Martin Luther King Jr. inspired us all to do better, be better.

I wish our president-elect was a 10th of the man this Nobel Peace Prize, Presidential Medal of Freedom and Congressional Gold Medal winner was. The disparity between the two is stark.

But we can choose to remember Martin Luther King Jr. and allow him to guide us. With light and love, he made a difference. I’m putting him on my advisory team.

I will not be silent about what matters to me, Martin. I will not be silent.
